[PATCH 08/15] io_uring: split io_uring_enter() and io_submit_sqes() into helpers

Jens Axboe axboe at kernel.dk
Fri Sep 11 08:40:58 PDT 2026


Move the tail of io_submit_sqes() into io_submit_sqes_end(), and split
the IORING_ENTER_GETEVENTS handling out of io_uring_enter() into
io_uring_enter_finish() and io_uring_getevents(). A later patch needs
to resume io_uring_enter() from a different task than the one that
started the syscall.

No functional changes in this patch.
