[PATCH v2 8/8] io_uring: optimise io_req_local_work_add

From: Pavel Begunkov
Date: Thu Apr 06 2023 - 09:21:30 EST


Chains of memory accesses are never good for performance.
The req->task->io_uring->in_cancel in io_req_local_work_add() is there
so that when a task is exiting via io_uring_try_cancel_requests() and
starts waiting for completions it gets woken up by every new task_work
item queued.

Do a little trick by announcing waiting in io_uring_try_cancel_requests()
making io_req_local_work_add() to wake us up. We also need to check for
deferred tw items after prepare_to_wait(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
