[ Upstream commit 73363c262d6a7d26063da96610f61baf69a70f7c ] Normally within a syscall it's fine to use fdget/fdput for grabbing a file from the file table, and it's fine within io_uring as well. We do that via io_uring_enter(2), io_uring_register(2), and then also for cancel which is invoked from the latter. io_uring cannot close its own file descriptors as that is explicitly rejected, and for the cancel side of things, the file itself is just used as a lookup cookie. However, it is more prudent to ensure that full references are always grabbed. For anything threaded, either explicitly in the application itself or through use of the io-wq worker threads, this is what happens anyway. Generalize it and use fget/fput throughout. Also see the below link for more details.

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.
