Looks like just grouping a pack of operations for RPC.
With io_uring we could implement more interesting stuff. I've been
thinking about eBPF in io_uring for a while as well, and apparently it
could be _really_ powerful, and would allow almost zero-context-switches
for some usecases.
1. full flow control with eBPF
- dropping requests (links)
- emitting reqs/links (e.g. after completions of another req)
- chaining/redirecting
of course, all of that with fast intermediate computations in between
2. do long eBPF programs by introducing a new opcode (punted to async).
(though, there would be problems with that)
Could even allow to dynamically register new opcodes within the kernel
and extend it to eBPF, if there will be demand for such things.
