+synopsis: "Block io_uring in the Linux sandbox"
+cls: 1611
+credits: alois31
+category: Breaking Changes
+---
+
+The io\_uring API has the unfortunate property that it is not possible to selectively decide which operations should be allowed.
+This, together with the fact that new operations are routinely added, makes it a hazard to the proper function of the sandbox.
+
+Therefore, any access to io\_uring has been made unavailable inside the sandbox.
+As such, attempts to execute any system calls forming part of this API will fail with the error `ENOSYS`, as if io\_uring support had not been configured into the kernel.

+synopsis: "`:edit`ing a file in Nix store no longer reloads the repl"
+issues: [fj#341]
+cls: [1620]
+category: Improvements
+credits: [goldstein]
+---
+
+Calling `:edit` from the repl now only reloads if the file being edited was outside of Nix store.
+That means that all the local variables are now preserved across `:edit`s of store paths.
+This is always safe because the store is read-only.
