This controls which linux implementation to use for
innodb_use_native_aio=ON.
innodb_linux_aio=auto is equivalent to innodb_linux_aio=io_uring when
it is available, and falling back to innodb_linux_aio=aio when not.
Debian packaging is no longer aio exclusive or uring, so
for those older Debian or Ubuntu releases, its a remove_uring directive.
For more recent releases, add mandatory liburing for consistent packaging.
WITH_LIBAIO is now an independent option from WITH_URING.
is_linux_native_aio_supported(): Remove. This had originally been added in
mysql/mysql-server@0da310b69d in 2012
to fix an issue where io_submit() on CentOS 5.5 would return EINVAL
for a /tmp/#sql*.ibd file associated with CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE.
But, starting with commit 2e814d4702 InnoDB
temporary tables will be written to innodb_temp_data_file_path.
The 2012 commit said that the error could occur on "old kernels".
Any GNU/Linux distribution that we currently support should be based
on a newer Linux kernel; for example, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
was released in 2014.
This is joint work with Daniel Black and Vladislav Vaintroub.
