Now that we have backpressure, for SQPOLL, we have one more condition that warrants flagging that the application needs to enter the kernel: we failed to submit IO due to backpressure. Make sure we catch that and flag it appropriately. If we run into backpressure issues with the SQPOLL thread, flag it as such to the application by setting IORING_SQ_NEED_WAKEUP. This will cause the application to enter the kernel, and that will flush the backlog and clear the condition. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
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.
