Normally these two flags do go together, as the issuer of polled IO generally cannot wait for resources that will get freed as part of IO completion. This is because that very task is the one that will complete the request and free those resources, hence that would introduce a deadlock. But it is possible to have someone else issue the polled IO, eg via io_uring if the request is punted to io-wq. For that case, it's fine to have the task block on IO submission, as it is not the same task that will be completing the IO. It's completely up to the caller to ask for both polled and nowait IO separately! If we don't allow polled IO where IOCB_NOWAIT isn't set in the kiocb, then we can run into repeated -EAGAIN submissions and not make any progress.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
