Currently we only post a cqe if we get an error OUTSIDE of submission. For submission, we return the error directly through io_uring_enter(). This is a bit awkward for applications, and it makes more sense to always post a cqe with an error, if the error happens on behalf of an sqe. This changes submission behavior a bit. io_uring_enter() returns -ERROR for an error, and > 0 for number of sqes submitted. Before this change, if you wanted to submit 8 entries and had an error on the 5th entry, io_uring_enter() would return 4 (for number of entries successfully submitted) and rewind the sqring. The application would then have to peek at the sqring and figure out what was wrong with the head sqe, and then skip it itself. With this change, we'll return 5 since we did consume 5 sqes, and the last sqe (with the error) will result in a cqe being posted with the error. This makes the logic easier to handle in the application, and it cleans up the submission part. Suggested-by: NStefan Bühler <source@stbuehler.de> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
