+.B #include <liburing.h>

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+The
+.BR io_uring_register_napi (3)
+function registers the NAPI settings for subsequent operations. The NAPI
+settings are specified in the structure that is passed in the
+.I napi
+parameter. The structure consists of the napi timeout
+.I busy_poll_to
+(napi busy poll timeout in us) and
+.IR prefer_busy_poll .
+
+Registering a NAPI settings sets the mode when calling the function
+napi_busy_loop and corresponds to the SO_PREFER_BUSY_POLL socket
+option.
+
+NAPI busy poll can reduce the network roundtrip time.
+
+

+.BR -errno .
