It's supposed to finish very quickly: axboe@p1 ~> time ./socket-rw 0.000s ________________________________________________________ Executed in 1.10 millis fish external usr time 888.00 micros 278.00 micros 610.00 micros sys time 35.00 micros 35.00 micros 0.00 micros If it doesn't, can you try: # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/io_uring/enable Then run the socket-rw app, and then do: # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace and send that output? Might also be useful to include the strace of the socket-rw just in case, so maybe run it ala strace -o foo ./socket-rw and include foo in the reply as well. -- Jens Axboe
