I personally think this is particularly cool, for having faced the same needs in the past. I'm just wondering how long we'll avoid the need for marking certain FDs as urgent (i.e. for inter-thread wakeup) which would bypass the min delay. I'm just seeing something a bit odd in this series: > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > epoll-min_ts-2022-12-08 > > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > Jens Axboe (8): > eventpoll: cleanup branches around sleeping for events > eventpoll: don't pass in 'timed_out' to ep_busy_loop() > eventpoll: split out wait handling > eventpoll: move expires to epoll_wq > eventpoll: move file checking earlier for epoll_ctl() > eventpoll: add support for min-wait > eventpoll: add method for configuring minimum wait on epoll context > eventpoll: ensure we pass back -EBADF for a bad file descriptor This last patch fixes a bug introduced by the 5th one. Why not squash it instead of purposely introducing a bug then its fix ? Or maybe it was just overlooked when you sent the PR ? Thanks, Willy
