Indeed I had thought this case before and don't clearly know how to optimize it yet. But I think if user has above usage scenarios, they probably shouldn't make io_uring instances share same cpu core. I'd like to explain more about our usage scenarios. In a physical machine, say there are 96 cores, and it runs multiple cgroups, every cgroup run same application and will monopoly 16 cpu cores. This application will create 16 io threads and every io thread will create an io_uring instance and every thread will be bound to a different cpu core, these io threads will receive io requests. If we enable SQPOLL for these io threads, we allocate one or two cpu cores for these io_uring instances at most, so they must share allocated cpu core. It's totally disaster that some io_uring instances' busy loop in their sq_thread_idle period will impact other io_uring instances which have io requests to handle. > > Another problem is that with it a user can't even guess when its SQ would be > emptied, and would need to constantly poll.

Yes :) Currently I use round robin strategy to handle multiple io_uring instance in every iteration. > The idea and the reasoning are compelling, but I think we need to do something > about unrelated io_uring instances obstructing each other.
