# Netty io_uring
The new io_uring interface added to the Linux Kernel 5.1 is a high I/O performance scalable interface for fully asynchronous Linux syscalls
## Requirements:
- x86-64 processor
- at least 5.9-rc4
- to run the tests, you have to increase memlock(default 64K)
See [our wiki page](https://netty.io/wiki/native-transports.html).
