The following is quick introduction using `Read` for file. ```rust use io_uring::{opcode, types, IoUring}; use std::os::unix::io::AsRawFd; use std::{fs, io}; fn main() -> io::Result<()> { let mut ring = IoUring::new(8)?; let fd = fs::File::open("README.md")?; let mut buf = vec![0; 1024]; let read_e = opcode::Read::new(types::Fd(fd.as_raw_fd()), buf.as_mut_ptr(), buf.len() as _) .build() .user_data(0x42); // Note that the developer needs to ensure // that the entry pushed into submission queue is valid (e.g. fd, buffer). unsafe { ring.submission() .push(&read_e) .expect("submission queue is full"); } ring.submit_and_wait(1)?; let cqe = ring.completion().next().expect("completion queue is empty"); assert_eq!(cqe.user_data(), 0x42); assert!(cqe.result() >= 0, "read error: {}", cqe.result()); Ok(()) } ``` Note that opcode `Read` is only available after kernel 5.6. If you use a kernel lower than 5.6, this example will fail. ## Test and Benchmarks You can run the test and benchmark of the library with the following commands. ``` $ cargo run --package io-uring-test $ cargo bench --package io-uring-bench ``` ### License This project is licensed under either of * Apache License, Version 2.0, ([LICENSE-APACHE](LICENSE-APACHE) or http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0) * MIT license ([LICENSE-MIT](LICENSE-MIT) or http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT) at your option. ### Contribution Unless you explicitly state otherwise, any contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in io-uring by you, as defined in the Apache-2.0 license, shall be dual licensed as above, without any additional terms or conditions.
