+/*
+This is an example that uses io_uring with attach mode.
+It demonstrates the what happens if some thread submits to
+the original ring and then spins, while a second thread waits
+on the attached ring. This deadlocks because even if rings are
+attached, they don't share a completion queue. Therefore all
+completion queues must be polled for progress to be made.
+
+It uses liburing for simplicity.
