In your high level "You might not want to use it if" points, you mention Docker but not why, and that's odd. I happen to know why: io_uring syscalls are blocked by default in Docker, because io_uring is a large surface area for attacks, and this has proven to be a real problem in practice. Others won't know this, however. They also won't know that io_uring is similarly blocked in widely used cloud sandboxes, Android, and elsewhere. Seems like a fine place to point this stuff out: anyone considering io_uring would want to know about these issues.
