/*
* general notes about linux aio:
*
* a) at first, the linux aio IOCB_CMD_POLL functionality introduced in
* 4.18 looks too good to be true: both watchers and events can be
* batched, and events can even be handled in userspace using
* a ring buffer shared with the kernel. watchers can be canceled
* regardless of whether the fd has been closed. no problems with fork.
* ok, the ring buffer is 200% undocumented (there isn't even a
* header file), but otherwise, it's pure bliss!
* b) ok, watchers are one-shot, so you have to re-arm active ones
* on every iteration. so much for syscall-less event handling,
* but at least these re-arms can be batched, no big deal, right?
* c) well, linux as usual: the documentation lies to you: io_submit
* sometimes returns EINVAL because the kernel doesn't feel like
* handling your poll mask - ttys can be polled for POLLOUT,
* POLLOUT|POLLIN, but polling for POLLIN fails. just great,
* so we have to fall back to something else (hello, epoll),
* but at least the fallback can be slow, because these are
* exceptional cases, right?
* d) hmm, you have to tell the kernel the maximum number of watchers
* you want to queue when initialising the aio context. but of
* course the real limit is magically calculated in the kernel, and
* is often higher then we asked for. so we just have to destroy
* the aio context and re-create it a bit larger if we hit the limit.
* (starts to remind you of epoll? well, it's a bit more deterministic
* and less gambling, but still ugly as hell).
* e) that's when you find out you can also hit an arbitrary system-wide
* limit. or the kernel simply doesn't want to handle your watchers.
* what the fuck do we do then? you guessed it, in the middle
* of event handling we have to switch to 100% epoll polling. and
* that better is as fast as normal epoll polling, so you practically
* have to use the normal epoll backend with all its quirks.
* f) end result of this train wreck: it inherits all the disadvantages
* from epoll, while adding a number on its own. why even bother to use
* it? because if conditions are right and your fds are supported and you
* don't hit a limit, this backend is actually faster, doesn't gamble with
* your fds, batches watchers and events and doesn't require costly state
* recreates. well, until it does.
* g) all of this makes this backend use almost twice as much code as epoll.
* which in turn uses twice as much code as poll. and that#s not counting
* the fact that this backend also depends on the epoll backend, making
* it three times as much code as poll, or kqueue.
* h) bleah. why can't linux just do kqueue. sure kqueue is ugly, but by now
* it's clear that whatever linux comes up with is far, far, far worse.
