From recently io_uring provides an option to allocate a file index for operation registering fixed files. However, it's utterly unusable with mixed approaches when for a part of files the userspace knows better where to place it, as it may race and users don't have any sane way to pick a slot and hoping it will not be taken. Let the userspace to register a range of fixed file slots in which the auto-allocation happens. The use case is splittting the fixed table in two parts, where on of them is used for auto-allocation and another for slot-specified operations.

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 Restructured Text 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.
