And do the liburing > side as well, so we have a sane base. I will post the big-cqe based work today. It works with fio. It does not deal with liburing (which seems tricky), but hopefully it can help us move forward anyway . > Then I'd suggest to collapse a few of the patches in the series, > the ones that simply modify or fix gaps in previous ones.

But yes, patches still add infra for features incrementally. Do you mean having all io_uring infra (async, plug, poll) squashed into a single io_uring patch? On a related note, I was thinking of deferring fixed-buffer and bio-cache support for now.
