Merge tag 'for-6.1/io_uring-2022-10-03' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:

 - Add supported for more directly managed task_work running.

   This is beneficial for real world applications that end up issuing
   lots of system calls as part of handling work. Normal task_work will
   always execute as we transition in and out of the kernel, even for
   "unrelated" system calls. It's more efficient to defer the handling
   of io_uring's deferred work until the application wants it to be run,
   generally in batches.

   As part of ongoing work to write an io_uring network backend for
   Thrift, this has been shown to greatly improve performance. (Dylan)

 - Add IOPOLL support for passthrough (Kanchan)

 - Improvements and fixes to the send zero-copy support (Pavel)

 - Partial IO handling fixes (Pavel)

 - CQE ordering fixes around CQ ring overflow (Pavel)

 - Support sendto() for non-zc as well (Pavel)

 - Support sendmsg for zerocopy (Pavel)

 - Networking iov_iter fix (Stefan)

 - Misc fixes and cleanups (Pavel, me)

README

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 Restructured Text 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.
