Problem
Splinter faces a scalability issue due to waiting for all I/O completions whenever an asynchronous read or write request is submitted.
Solution
To address this,
laio_cleanup()
is piggybacked inlaio_read_async()
andlaio_write_async()
to handle completions returned byio_getevents()
once. It immediately returns if there are no completions, even if some I/O operations may be still in flight.
