Description Jeff Moyer 2020-09-22 17:21:16 UTC
Description of problem:
io_uring is a new asynchronous I/O interface in the kernel which delivers much lower overhead per operation than the existing interfaces.  Multiple layered products are now adding support for io_uring, and need the kernel support to be present.

Is this still being considered for addition to RHEL and if so would engineering be interested to see the issue DT is facing and considering working on their driver upstream?

Comment 20 Jeff Moyer 2022-10-17 20:14:21 UTC
io_uring support will not be enabled in RHEL 8.
