[PATCH 14/27] aio: add support for having user mapped iocbs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For io_submit(), we have to first copy each pointer to an iocb, then
copy the iocb. The latter is 64 bytes in size, and that's a lot of
copying for a single IO.

Add support for setting IOCTX_FLAG_USERIOCB through the new io_setup2()
system call, which allows the iocbs to reside in userspace. If this flag
is used, then io_submit() doesn't take pointers to iocbs anymore, it
takes an index value into the array of iocbs instead. Similary, for
io_getevents(), the iocb ->obj will be the index, not the pointer to the
iocb.

See the change made to fio to support this feature, it's pretty
trivialy to adapt to. For applications, like fio, that previously
embedded the iocb inside a application private structure, some sort
of lookup table/structure is needed to find the private IO structure
from the index at io_getevents() time.
