[PATCH v2 for-next 10/12] io_uring: multishot recv

From: Dylan Yudaken
Date: Thu Jun 30 2022 - 05:19:19 EST


Support multishot receive for io_uring.
Typical server applications will run a loop where for each recv CQE it
requeues another recv/recvmsg.

This can be simplified by using the existing multishot functionality
combined with io_uring's provided buffers.
The API is to add the IORING_RECV_MULTISHOT flag to the SQE. CQEs will
then be posted (with IORING_CQE_F_MORE flag set) when data is available
and is read. Once an error occurs or the socket ends, the multishot will
be removed and a completion without IORING_CQE_F_MORE will be posted.

The benefit to this is that the recv is much more performant.
* Subsequent receives are queued up straight away without requiring the
application to finish a processing loop.
* If there are more data in the socket (sat the provided buffer size is
smaller than the socket buffer) then the data is immediately
returned, improving batching.
* Poll is only armed once and reused, saving CPU cycles
