io_uring/poll: correctly handle io_poll_add() return value on update

2026-01-08T09:14:25+00:00

Commit 84230ad2d2afbf0c44c32967e525c0ad92e26b4e upstream. When the core of io_uring was updated to handle completions consistently and with fixed return codes, the POLL_REMOVE opcode with updates got slightly broken. If a POLL_ADD is pending and then POLL_REMOVE is used to update the events of that request, if that update causes the POLL_ADD to now trigger, then that completion is lost and a CQE is never posted. Additionally, ensure that if an update does cause an existing POLL_ADD to complete, that the completion value isn't always overwritten with -ECANCELED. For that case, whatever io_poll_add() set the value to should just be retained.

io_uring: include dying ring in task_work "should cancel" state

2025-09-25T09:13:47+00:00

Commit 3539b1467e94336d5854ebf976d9627bfb65d6c3 upstream. When running task_work for an exiting task, rather than perform the issue retry attempt, the task_work is canceled. However, this isn't done for a ring that has been closed. This can lead to requests being successfully completed post the ring being closed, which is somewhat confusing and surprising to an application. Rather than just check the task exit state, also include the ring ref state in deciding whether or not to terminate a given request when run from task_work.

io_uring/poll: fix POLLERR handling

2025-07-24T06:56:23+00:00

commit c7cafd5b81cc07fb402e3068d134c21e60ea688c upstream. 8c8492ca64e7 ("io_uring/net: don't retry connect operation on EPOLLERR") is a little dirty hack that 1) wrongfully assumes that POLLERR equals to a failed request, which breaks all POLLERR users, e.g. all error queue recv interfaces. 2) deviates the connection request behaviour from connect(2), and 3) racy and solved at a wrong level. Nothing can be done with 2) now, and 3) is beyond the scope of the patch. At least solve 1) by moving the hack out of generic poll handling into io_connect().

io_uring/net: don't retry connect operation on EPOLLERR

2025-02-17T09:05:38+00:00

commit 8c8492ca64e79c6e0f433e8c9d2bcbd039ef83d0 upstream. If a socket is shutdown before the connection completes, POLLERR is set in the poll mask. However, connect ignores this as it doesn't know, and attempts the connection again. This may lead to a bogus -ETIMEDOUT result, where it should have noticed the POLLERR and just returned -ECONNRESET instead. Have the poll logic check for whether or not POLLERR is set in the mask, and if so, mark the request as failed. Then connect can appropriately fail the request rather than retry it.

io_uring: fix multishots with selected buffers

2025-02-17T09:05:38+00:00

commit d63b0e8a628e62ca85a0f7915230186bb92f8bb4 upstream. We do io_kbuf_recycle() when arming a poll but every iteration of a multishot can grab more buffers, which is why we need to flush the kbuf ring state before continuing with waiting.

io_uring: keep multishot request NAPI timeout current

2024-07-30T12:18:58+00:00

This refresh statement was originally present in the original patch: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20221121191437.996297-2-shr@devkernel.io/ It has been removed with no explanation in v6: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230201222254.744422-2-shr@devkernel.io/ It is important to make the refresh for multishot requests, because if no new requests using the same NAPI device are added to the ring, the entry will become stale and be removed silently. The unsuspecting user will not know that their ring had busy polling for only 60 seconds before being pruned.

io_uring/alloc_cache: switch to array based caching

2024-04-15T14:10:25+00:00

Currently lists are being used to manage this, but best practice is usually to have these in an array instead as that it cheaper to manage. Outside of that detail, games are also played with KASAN as the list is inside the cached entry itself. Finally, all users of this need a struct io_cache_entry embedded in their struct, which is union'ized with something else in there that isn't used across the free -> realloc cycle. Get rid of all of that, and simply have it be an array. This will not change the memory used, as we're just trading an 8-byte member entry for the per-elem array size. This reduces the overhead of the recycled allocations, and it reduces the amount of code code needed to support recycling to about half of what it currently is. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

io_uring: refactor io_fill_cqe_req_aux

2024-04-15T14:10:24+00:00

The restriction on multishot execution context disallowing io-wq is driven by rules of io_fill_cqe_req_aux(), it should only be called in the master task context, either from the syscall path or in task_work. Since task_work now always takes the ctx lock implying IO_URING_F_COMPLETE_DEFER, we can just assume that the function is always called with its defer argument set to true. Kill the argument. Also rename the function for more consistency as "fill" in CQE related functions was usually meant for raw interfaces only copying data into the CQ without any locking, waking the user and other accounting "post" functions take care of.

io_uring: remove struct io_tw_state::locked

2024-04-15T14:10:24+00:00

ctx is always locked for task_work now, so get rid of struct io_tw_state::locked. Note I'm stopping one step before removing io_tw_state altogether, which is not empty, because it still serves the purpose of indicating which function is a tw callback and forcing users not to invoke them carelessly out of a wrong context. The removal can always be done later.
