The problem with epoll is that the callback-based wakeups do not, ATM, carry any information about the events the wakeup is related to. So the only choice epoll has (not being able to call f_op->poll() from inside the callback), is to add the file* to a ready-list and resolve the real events later on, at epoll_wait() (or its own f_op->poll()) time. This can cause spurious wakeups, since the wake_up() itself might be for an event the caller is not interested into. The rate of these spurious wakeup can be pretty high in case of many network sockets being monitored. By allowing devices to report the events the wakeups refer to (at least the two major classes - POLLIN/POLLOUT), we are able to spare useless wakeups by proper handling inside the epoll's poll callback. Epoll will have in any case to call f_op->poll() on the file* later on, since the change to be done in order to have the full event set sent via wakeup, is too invasive for the way our f_op->poll() system works (the full event set is calculated inside the poll function - there are too many of them to even start thinking the change - also poll/select would need change too). Epoll is changed in a way that both devices which send event hints, and the ones that don't, are correctly handled. The former will gain some efficiency though. As a general rule for devices, would be to add an event mask by using key-aware wakeup macros, when making up poll wait queues. I tested it (together with the epoll's poll fix patch Andrew has in -mm) and wakeups for the supported devices are correctly filtered. Test program available here: http://www.xmailserver.org/epoll_test.c This patch: Nothing revolutionary here. Just using the available "key" that our wakeup core already support. The __wake_up_locked_key() was no brainer, since both __wake_up_locked() and __wake_up_locked_key() are thin wrappers around __wake_up_common(). The __wake_up_sync() function had a body, so the choice was between borrowing the body for __wake_up_sync_key() and calling it from __wake_up_sync(), or make an inline and calling it from both. I chose the former since in most archs it all resolves to "mov $0, REG; jmp ADDR".
