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

2026-01-11T14:22:03+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

2025-09-25T09:00:09+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

2025-07-24T06:53:12+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: add io_file_can_poll() helper

2025-06-19T13:28:44+00:00

Commit 95041b93e90a06bb613ec4bef9cd4d61570f68e4 upstream. This adds a flag to avoid dipping dereferencing file and then f_op to figure out if the file has a poll handler defined or not. We generally call this at least twice for networked workloads, and if using ring provided buffers, we do it on every buffer selection. Particularly the latter is troublesome, as it's otherwise a very fast operation. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

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

2025-02-17T08:40:36+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

2025-02-17T08:40:36+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: fix poll_remove stalled req completion

2024-03-26T22:20:09+00:00

[ Upstream commit 5e3afe580a9f5ca173a6bd55ffe10948796ef7e5 ] Taking the ctx lock is not enough to use the deferred request completion infrastructure, it'll get queued into the list but no one would expect it there, so it will sit there until next io_submit_flush_completions(). It's hard to care about the cancellation path, so complete it via tw.

io_uring/poll: add requeue return code from poll multishot handling

2024-02-16T18:10:56+00:00

Commit 704ea888d646cb9d715662944cf389c823252ee0 upstream. Since our poll handling is edge triggered, multishot handlers retry internally until they know that no more data is available. In preparation for limiting these retries, add an internal return code, IOU_REQUEUE, which can be used to inform the poll backend about the handler wanting to retry, but that this should happen through a normal task_work requeue rather than keep hammering on the issue side for this one request. No functional changes in this patch, nobody is using this return code just yet. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
