Reminds me of that panic over Linux namespaces because they kept surfacing vulnerabilities in existing software that used to run as root.
It's such a shame. The io_uring interface is one of the coolest features of the kernel. It's essentially an asynchronous system call interface. A sane asynchronous I/O interface that finally did it right after many tries. Sucks to see it just get blocked everywhere because of vulnerabilities. I hope whatever problems it has get fixed because I want to write software that uses io_uring and I absolutely want to run said software on my phone with Termux.
