+function registers the NAPI busy poll
+.I timeout
+for subsequent operations.
+
+Registering a NAPI busy poll timeout is a requirement to be able to use
+NAPI busy polling. The other way to enable NAPI busy polling is to set the
+proc setting /proc/sys/net/core/busy_poll.
+
+NAPI busy poll can reduce the network roundtrip time.
+
+
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success
+.BR io_uring_register_busy_poll_timeout (3)
+return 0. On failure they return
+.BR -errno .
