Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe: - Avoid indirect function calls in io-wq for executing and freeing work. The design of io-wq is such that it can be a generic mechanism, but as it's just used by io_uring now, may as well avoid these indirect calls - Clean up registered buffers for networking - Add support for IORING_OP_PIPE. Pretty straight forward, allows creating pipes with io_uring, particularly useful for having these be instantiated as direct descriptors - Clean up the coalescing support fore registered buffers - Add support for multiple interface queues for zero-copy rx networking. As this feature was merged for 6.15 it supported just a single ifq per ring - Clean up the eventfd support - Add dma-buf support to zero-copy rx - Clean up and improving the request draining support - Clean up provided buffer support, most notably with an eye toward making the legacy support less intrusive - Minor fdinfo cleanups, dropping support for dumping what credentials are registered - Improve support for overflow CQE handling, getting rid of GFP_ATOMIC for allocating overflow entries where possible - Improve detection of cases where io-wq doesn't need to spawn a new worker unnecessarily - Various little cleanups * tag 'for-6.16/io_uring-20250523' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux: (59 commits) io_uring/cmd: warn on reg buf imports by ineligible cmds io_uring/io-wq: only create a new worker if it can make progress io_uring/io-wq: ignore non-busy worker going to sleep io_uring/io-wq: move hash helpers to the top trace/io_uring: fix io_uring_local_work_run ctx documentation io_uring: finish IOU_OK -> IOU_COMPLETE transition io_uring: add new helpers for posting overflows io_uring: pass in struct io_big_cqe to io_alloc_ocqe() io_uring: make io_alloc_ocqe() take a struct io_cqe pointer io_uring: split alloc and add of overflow io_uring: open code io_req_cqe_overflow() io_uring/fdinfo: get rid of dumping credentials io_uring/fdinfo: only compile if CONFIG_PROC_FS is set io_uring/kbuf: unify legacy buf provision and removal io_uring/kbuf: refactor __io_remove_buffers io_uring/kbuf: don't compute size twice on prep io_uring/kbuf: drop extra vars in io_register_pbuf_ring io_uring/kbuf: use mem_is_zero() io_uring/kbuf: account ring io_buffer_list memory io_uring: drain based on allocates reqs ...
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
