Yes, I do. I was stress testing the code since last night. After 20+
hours of stress run with fio and aio-stress, now I'm posting it with
confidence.
I modified libaio's io_getevents to take advantage of new user level
reap function. The feature is exported out via ring->compat_features.
btw, is compat_feature suppose to be a version number or a bit mask?
I think bitmask make more sense and more flexible.
Additional patch on the kernel side to export the new features. On
