Merge tag 'for-6.13/io_uring-20241118' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:

 - Cleanups of the eventfd handling code, making it fully private.

 - Support for sending a sync message to another ring, without having a
   ring available to send a normal async message.

 - Get rid of the separate unlocked hash table, unify everything around
   the single locked one.

 - Add support for ring resizing. It can be hard to appropriately size
   the CQ ring upfront, if the application doesn't know how busy it will
   be. This results in applications sizing rings for the most busy case,
   which can be wasteful. With ring resizing, they can start small and
   grow the ring, if needed.

 - Add support for fixed wait regions, rather than needing to copy the
   same wait data tons of times for each wait operation.

 - Rewrite the resource node handling, which before was serialized per
   ring. This caused issues with particularly fixed files, where one
   file waiting on IO could hold up putting and freeing of other
   unrelated files. Now each node is handled separately. New code is
   much simpler too, and was a net 250 line reduction in code.

 - Add support for just doing partial buffer clones, rather than always
   cloning the entire buffer table.

 - Series adding static NAPI support, where a specific NAPI instance is
   used rather than having a list of them available that need lookup.

 - Add support for mapped regions, and also convert the fixed wait
   support mentioned above to that concept. This avoids doing special
   mappings for various planned features, and folds the existing
   registered wait into that too.

 - Add support for hybrid IO polling, which is a variant of strict
   IOPOLL but with an initial sleep delay to avoid spinning too early
   and wasting resources on devices that aren't necessarily in the < 5
   usec category wrt latencies.

 - Various cleanups and little fixes.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
