Now users who want to get woken when waiting for events should submit a timeout command first. It is not safe for applications that split SQ and CQ handling between two threads, such as mysql. Users should synchronize the two threads explicitly to protect SQ and that will impact the performance. This patch adds support for timeout to existing io_uring_enter(). To avoid overloading arguments, it introduces a new parameter structure which contains sigmask and timeout. I have tested the workloads with one thread submiting nop requests while the other reaping the cqe with timeout. It shows 1.8~2x faster when the iodepth is 16.
