Introducing io_uring_spawn
The traditional mechanism for launching a program in a new process on Unix systems—forking and execing—has been with us for decades, but it is not really the most efficient of operations.
Ringing in a new asynchronous I/O API
The new "io_uring" interface simplifies asynchronous I/O in the Linux kernel by using two ring buffers for submission and completion queues. Applications can set up these buffers with a system call and submit I/O requests through a structured format. This method aims to reduce complaints about AIO by improving efficiency and ease of use.
