io_uring_prep_msg_ring (3) prepares a to send a CQE to an io_uring file descriptor. The submission queue entry sqe is setup to use the file descriptor fd , which must identify a io_uring context, to post a CQE on that ring where the target CQE res field will contain the content of len and the user_data of data with the request modifier flags set by flags . Currently there are no valid flag modifiers, this field must contain 0 . The targeted ring may be any ring that the user has access to, even the ring itself. This request can be used for simple message passing to another ring, allowing 32+64 bits of data to be transferred through the len and data fields. The use case may be anything from simply waking up someone waiting on the targeted ring, or it can be used to pass messages between the two rings.
-ENOMEM The kernel was unable to allocate memory for the request.
-EINVAL One of the fields set in the SQE was invalid.
-EBADFD The descriptor passed in fd does not refer to an io_uring file descriptor.
-EOVERFLOW The kernel was unable to fill a CQE on the target ring. This can happen if the target CQ ring is in an overflow state and the kernel wasn't able to allocate memory for a new CQE entry.
