Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] io_uring: Add IORING_OP_DUP
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 18:23:41 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260320182341.780295-3-daniele.di.proietto@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260320182341.780295-1-daniele.di.proietto@gmail.com>

The new operation is like dup3(). The source file can be a regular file
descriptor or a direct descriptor. The destination is a regular file
descriptor.

The direct descriptor variant is useful to move a descriptor to an fd
and close the existing fd with a single acquisition of the `struct
files_struct` `file_lock`. Combined with IORING_OP_ACCEPT or
IORING_OP_OPENAT2 with direct descriptors, it can reduce lock contention
for multithreaded applications.
