From fb7e160019f4abb4082740bfeb27a38f6389c745 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Thu, 22 Nov 2018 16:37:38 +0100 Subject: fs: add an iopoll method to struct file_operations This new methods is used to explicitly poll for I/O completion for an iocb. It must be called for any iocb submitted asynchronously (that is with a non-null ki_complete) which has the IOCB_HIPRI flag set. The method is assisted by a new ki_cookie field in struct iocb to store the polling cookie.
