I guess this is just the way it is currently.

For Samba I'd also like to be sure to never get short write to a socket.

There I'd like to keep the pipeline full by submitting as much sqe's as possible
(without waiting for completions on every single IORING_OP_SENDMSG/IORING_OP_SPLICE)
using IOSQE_IO_DRAIN or IOSQE_IO_LINK and maybe IOSQE_ASYNC or IORING_SETUP_SQPOLL.

But for now I just used a single sqe with IOSQE_ASYNC at a time.

Jens, do you see a way to overcome that limitation?

As far as I understand the situation is completely fixed now and
it's no possible to get short reads and writes for file io anymore, is that correct?
