I hit a very bad problem during my tests of SENDMSG_ZC. BUG(); in first_iovec_segment() triggered very easily. The problem was io_setup_async_msg() in the partial retry case, which seems to happen more often with _ZC. iov_iter_iovec_advance() may change i->iov in order to have i->iov_offset being only relative to the first element. Which means kmsg->msg.msg_iter.iov is no longer the same as kmsg->fast_iov. But this would rewind the copy to be the start of async_msg->fast_iov, which means the internal state of sync_msg->msg.msg_iter is inconsitent. I tested with 5 vectors with length like this 4, 0, 64, 20, 8388608 and got a short writes with: - ret=2675244 min_ret=8388692 => remaining 5713448 sr->done_io=2675244 - ret=-EAGAIN => io_uring_poll_arm - ret=4911225 min_ret=5713448 => remaining 802223 sr->done_io=7586469 - ret=-EAGAIN => io_uring_poll_arm - ret=802223 min_ret=802223 => res=8388692 While this was easily triggered with SENDMSG_ZC (queued for 6.1), it was a potential problem starting with 7ba89d2af17aa879dda30f5d5d3f152e587fc551 in 5.18 for IORING_OP_RECVMSG. And also with 4c3c09439c08b03d9503df0ca4c7619c5842892e in 5.19 for IORING_OP_SENDMSG. However 257e84a5377fbbc336ff563833a8712619acce56 introduced the critical code into io_setup_async_msg() in 5.11.
