Use io_uring for async io access.
Replace aio with io_uring in async disk io access.
Io_uring is a new kernel feature to async io access. Nginx can use it for legacy disk aio access(for example, disk cache file access)
Check with iostat that shows nvme disk io has 30%+ performance improvement with 1 thread.
Test with wrk with 100 threads 200 connections(-t 100 -c 1000) with 25000 random requests.
iostat(B/s)
libaio 1.0 GB/s
io_uring 1.3+ GB/s
