NAME

       io_uring_submit - submit requests to the submission queue

SYNOPSIS

       #include <liburing.h>

       int io_uring_submit(struct io_uring *ring);

DESCRIPTION

       The  io_uring_submit(3) function submits the next events to the submission queue belonging
       to the ring.

       After the caller retrieves a submission queue entry  (SQE)  with  io_uring_get_sqe(3)  and
       prepares   the  SQE  using  one  of  the  provided  helpers,  it  can  be  submitted  with
       io_uring_submit(3).

RETURN VALUE

       On success io_uring_submit(3) returns the number of submitted submission queue entries, if
       SQPOLL  is  not  used.   If SQPOLL is used, the return value may report a higher number of
       submitted entries than actually submitted. If the the user requires  accurate  information
       about  how  many  submission  queue  entries have been successfully submitted, while using
       SQPOLL, the user must fall back to repeatedly submitting a single submission queue  entry.
       On failure it returns -errno.

NOTES

       For  any  request  that  passes in data in a struct, that data must remain valid until the
       request has been successfully submitted. It need not remain valid until completion. Once a
       request  has  been  submitted,  the in-kernel state is stable. Very early kernels (5.4 and
       earlier) required state to be stable until the completion occurred. Applications can  test
       for  this  behavior  by  inspecting  the  IORING_FEAT_SUBMIT_STABLE  flag passed back from
       io_uring_queue_init_params(3).  In general, the man pages for the individual prep  helpers
       will have a note mentioning this fact as well, if required for the given command.
