Using 64KiB (65536) PAGE_SIZE here.  64-bit pointers.

Tried both #define SHM_COLOUR 0x100000, as well and info.align_mask = 
0xFFFFF, but both of them made the problem change from 100% 
reproducible, to intermittent.

After inspecting the ouput I observed that it hangs only when the first 
allocation returns an address below 0x2000000000000000, and the second 
returns an address above it.  When both addresses are above it, it does 
not hang.  Examples:

When it works:
$ cmake --version
cmake version 3.26.4

CMake suite maintained and supported by Kitware (kitware.com/cmake).
$ dmesg --color=always -T | tail -n 4
[Wed Jul 12 20:32:37 2023] io_uring_mmu_get_unmapped_area() would return 
address 1fffffffffe20000
[Wed Jul 12 20:32:37 2023] but arch_get_unmapped_area() would return 
address 2000000002000000
[Wed Jul 12 20:32:37 2023] io_uring_mmu_get_unmapped_area() would return 
address 1fffffffffe50000
[Wed Jul 12 20:32:37 2023] but arch_get_unmapped_area() would return 
address 2000000002100000


When it hangs:
$ cmake --version
cmake version 3.26.4

CMake suite maintained and supported by Kitware (kitware.com/cmake).
^C
$ dmesg --color=always -T | tail -n 4
[Wed Jul 12 20:33:12 2023] io_uring_mmu_get_unmapped_area() would return 
address 1ffffffffff00000
[Wed Jul 12 20:33:12 2023] but arch_get_unmapped_area() would return 
address 1ffffffffff00000
[Wed Jul 12 20:33:12 2023] io_uring_mmu_get_unmapped_area() would return 
address 1fffffffffe60000
[Wed Jul 12 20:33:12 2023] but arch_get_unmapped_area() would return 
address 2000000001f00000

Is io_uring_mmu_get_unmapped_area supported to always return addresses 
above 0x2000000000000000?  Any reason why it is not doing so sometimes?
