Commit Message

Jens Axboe July 20, 2023, 6:13 p.m. UTC
If the filesystem dio handler understands IOCB_DIO_DEFER, we'll get
a kiocb->ki_complete() callback with kiocb->dio_complete set. In that
case, rather than complete the IO directly through task_work, queue
up an intermediate task_work handler that first processes this
callback and then immediately completes the request.

For XFS, this avoids a punt through a workqueue, which is a lot less
efficient and adds latency to lower queue depth (or sync) O_DIRECT
writes.

Only do this for non-polled IO, as polled IO doesn't need this kind
of deferral as it always completes within the task itself. This then
avoids a check for deferral in the polled IO completion handler.

Seems pretty obvious to me, though I'm famous for not being an
experienced io_uring user yet...
