We need a way to notify userspace when a lazily removed resource actually died out. This will be done by associating a tag, which is u64 exactly like req->user_data, with each rsrc (e.g. buffer of file). A CQE will be posted once a resource is actually put down. Tag 0 is a special value set by default, for whcih it don't generate an CQE, so providing the old behaviour. Don't expose it to the userspace yet, but prepare internally, allocate buffers, add all posting hooks, etc. Signed-off-by: Pavel Begunkov <asml.silence@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/2e6beec5eabe7216bb61fb93cdf5aaf65812a9b0.1619356238.git.asml.silence@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
