Subject: [PATCH v2 06/25] io_uring/kbuf: add buffer ring pinning/unpinning
Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2025 00:33:00 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251218083319.3485503-7-joannelkoong@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251218083319.3485503-1-joannelkoong@gmail.com>
Add kernel APIs to pin and unpin buffer rings, preventing userspace from
unregistering a buffer ring while it is pinned by the kernel.
This provides a mechanism for kernel subsystems to safely access buffer
ring contents while ensuring the buffer ring remains valid. A pinned
buffer ring cannot be unregistered until explicitly unpinned. On the
userspace side, trying to unregister a pinned buffer will return -EBUSY.
This is a preparatory change for upcoming fuse usage of kernel-managed
buffer rings. It is necessary for fuse to pin the buffer ring because
fuse may need to select a buffer in atomic contexts, which it can only
do so by using the underlying buffer list pointer.
