      io_uring: recycle apoll_poll entries · 4d9237e3
      Jens Axboe authored
      Particularly for networked workloads, io_uring intensively uses its
      poll based backend to get a notification when data/space is available.
      Profiling workloads, we see 3-4% of alloc+free that is directly attributed
      to just the apoll allocation and free (and the rest being skb alloc+free).
      
      For the fast path, we have ctx->uring_lock held already for both issue
      and the inline completions, and we can utilize that to avoid any extra
      locking needed to have a basic recycling cache for the apoll entries on
      both the alloc and free side.
      
      Double poll still requires an allocation. But those are rare and not
      a fast path item.
      
      With the simple cache in place, we see a 3-4% reduction in overhead for
      the workload.

       "A few more fixes for various problems that have user visible effects
        or seem to be urgent:
      
         - fix corruption when combining DIO and non-blocking io_uring over
           multiple extents (seen on MariaDB)
      
         - fix relocation crash due to premature return from commit
      
         - fix quota deadlock between rescan and qgroup removal
      
         - fix item data bounds checks in tree-checker (found on a fuzzed
           image)
