 * Linux io_uring file descriptor monitoring
 *
 * The Linux io_uring API supports file descriptor monitoring with a few
 * advantages over existing APIs like poll(2) and epoll(7):
 *
 * 1. Userspace polling of events is possible because the completion queue (cq
 *    ring) is shared between the kernel and userspace.  This allows
 *    applications that rely on userspace polling to also monitor file
 *    descriptors in the same userspace polling loop.
 *
 * 2. Submission and completion is batched and done together in a single system
 *    call.  This minimizes the number of system calls.
 *
 * 3. File descriptor monitoring is O(1) like epoll(7) so it scales better than
 *    poll(2).
 *
 * 4. Nanosecond timeouts are supported so it requires fewer syscalls than
 *    epoll(7).
 *
 * This code only monitors file descriptors and does not do asynchronous disk
 * I/O.  Implementing disk I/O efficiently has other requirements and should
 * use a separate io_uring so it does not make sense to unify the code.
 *
 * File descriptor monitoring is implemented using the following operations:
 *
 * 1. IORING_OP_POLL_ADD - adds a file descriptor to be monitored.
 * 2. IORING_OP_POLL_REMOVE - removes a file descriptor being monitored.  When
 *    the poll mask changes for a file descriptor it is first removed and then
 *    re-added with the new poll mask, so this operation is also used as part
 *    of modifying an existing monitored file descriptor.
 * 3. IORING_OP_TIMEOUT - added every time a blocking syscall is made to wait
 *    for events.  This operation self-cancels if another event completes
 *    before the timeout.
 *
 * io_uring calls the submission queue the "sq ring" and the completion queue
 * the "cq ring".  Ring entries are called "sqe" and "cqe", respectively.
 *
 * The code is structured so that sq/cq rings are only modified within
 * fdmon_io_uring_wait().  Changes to AioHandlers are made by enqueuing them on
 * ctx->submit_list so that fdmon_io_uring_wait() can submit IORING_OP_POLL_ADD
 * and/or IORING_OP_POLL_REMOVE sqes for them.
