#include <liburing.h>void *io_uring_cqe_get_data(struct io_uring_cqe *cqe);__u64 io_uring_cqe_get_data64(struct io_uring_cqe *cqe);
Theio_uring_cqe_get_data(3) function returns the user_data with the completion queue entrycqe as a data pointer. Theio_uring_cqe_get_data64(3) function returns the user_data with the completion queue entrycqe as a 64-bit data value. After the caller has received a completion queue entry (CQE) withio_uring_wait_cqe(3), the application can callio_uring_cqe_get_data(3) orio_uring_cqe_get_data64(3) function to retrieve theuser_data value. This requires thatuser_data has been set earlier with the functionio_uring_sqe_set_data(3) orio_uring_sqe_set_data64(3).
If theuser_data value has been set before submitting the request, it will be returned. Otherwise, the return value is undefined.
