Subject: [PATCH] io_uring: support async buffered reads when readahead is disabled
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2020 20:00:45 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

The async buffered reads feature is not working when readahead is
turned off. There are two things to concern:

- when doing retry in io_read, not only the IOCB_WAITQ flag but also
  the IOCB_NOWAIT flag is still set, which makes it goes to would_block
  phase in generic_file_buffered_read() and then return -EAGAIN. After
  that, the io-wq thread work is queued, and later doing the async
  reads in the old way.

- even if we remove IOCB_NOWAIT when doing retry, the feature is still
  not running properly, since in generic_file_buffered_read() it goes to
  lock_page_killable() after calling mapping->a_ops->readpage() to do
  IO, and thus causing process to sleep.

Fixes: 1a0a7853b901 ("mm: support async buffered reads in generic_file_buffered_read()")
Fixes: 3b2a4439e0ae ("io_uring: get rid of kiocb_wait_page_queue_init()")
