Subject: [PATCH v2 3/9] io_uring/kbuf: support kernel-managed buffer rings in buffer selection
Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2026 18:52:01 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260218025207.1425553-4-joannelkoong@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260218025207.1425553-1-joannelkoong@gmail.com>

Allow kernel-managed buffers to be selected. This requires modifying the
io_br_sel struct to separate the fields for address and val, since a
kernel address cannot be distinguished from a negative val when error
checking.

Auto-commit any selected kernel-managed buffer.
