The fasync should not matter, it's all in the checking of whether the sq side has any sleepers. This is rarely going to be the case, so as long as we can keep the check cheap, then I think we're fine. Since the use case is mostly single submitter, unless you're doing something funky or unusual, you're not going to be needing POLLOUT ever. Hence I don't want to add any cost for it, I'd even advocate just doing waitqueue_active() perhaps, if we can safely pull it off. -- Jens Axboe
