Thanks for the patch and testing. Potentially this looks interesting, despite the fact that improvements even in terms of resource costs seem to be minor compared to properly configured nginx using other I/O variants. There are, however, some concerns regarding the interface itself and tunings need to be applied in order for it to work, as well as regressions in various kernels out there. There are also some questions about the patch, notably retries in case of short reads, though this probably needs better understanding of the interface. As of now, the consensus is that we'll get back to this some time later, though probably we want to make this not a default aio method at first, but rather an alternative one, available with something like "aio io_uring;", similarly to "aio threads;". Thanks again for your work. We'll contact you once we return to this topic. -- Maxim Dounin http://mdounin.ru/ _______________________________________________ nginx-devel mailing list nginx-devel@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx-devel
