+ * With io_uring, the data flow is slightly different.
+ *
+ * The data flow is as follows:
+ *
+ * 1: Queue the I/O requests to be read from backing source device.
+ * This is done by retrieving the SQE entry from ring and populating
+ * the SQE entry. Note that the I/O is not submitted yet.
+ *
+ * 2: Once the ring is full (aka queue_depth), we will submit all
+ * the queued I/O request with a single system call. This essentially
+ * cuts down "queue_depth" number of system calls to a single system call.
+ *
+ * 3: Once the I/O is submitted, user-space thread will now work
+ * on processing the XOR Operations. This happens in parallel when
+ * I/O requests are submitted to the kernel. This is ok because, for XOR
+ * operations, we first need to retrieve the compressed data form COW block
+ * device. Thus, we have offloaded the backing source I/O to the kernel
+ * and user-space is parallely working on fetching the data for XOR operations.
+ *
+ * 4: After the XOR operations are read from COW device, poll the completion
+ * queue for all the I/O submitted. If the I/O's were already completed,
+ * then user-space thread will just read the CQE requests from the ring
+ * without doing any system call. If none of the I/O were completed yet,
+ * user-space thread will do a system call and wait for I/O completions.
+ *
