Excerpt

io_uring

Purpose

Guide agents through Linux io_uring: the submission/completion queue model (SQE/CQE), liburing API, multi-shot accept/recv, provided buffer rings, fixed files and registered buffers, zero-copy send, Rust integration with tokio-uring, performance comparison with epoll, and security considerations.

When to Use

Building a high-throughput network or disk server on Linux 5.1+
Replacing epoll + thread pool with fewer syscalls
Implementing multi-shot accept/recv for connection-heavy services
Using zero-copy networking with IORING_OP_SEND_ZC
Integrating async I/O in Rust via tokio-uring
Evaluating io_uring vs epoll for your workload

Workflow

1. SQ/CQ model
