> Basically you don't need change your configurations. If you're using new kernel(above v5.1) which supports io_uring, and you have "aio on" in your configuration. Nginx will use io_uring for FILE_AIO access which can achieve performance improvement than legacy libaio.

Hello,

what size of request did you use in your testing?
The previous attempt to use uring
(http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-devel/2020-November/013632.html)
seem to have issues with big requests and fallback to sendfile in such
cases. Note that from the standpoint of HTTP server, most requests are
usually larger than 4Kb.
