They would also be useful to reduce context switches when receiving data from all kinds of descriptors. At present, when polling, you receive notification, and then you have to call into the kernel, again, to actually fetch the data and associated information. The kernel could also queue the data for one specific recipient, addressing the same issue that SO_REUSEPORT tries to solve (on poll notification, the kernel does not know which recipient will eventually retrieve the data, so it has to notify and wake up all of them). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
