119 * Attempt to cancel one or more asynchronous I/O requests currently outstanding
120 * against file descriptor fd. The aiocbp argument points to the asynchronous I/O
121 * control block for a particular request to be canceled. If aiocbp is NULL, then

128 * Return the error status associated with the aiocb structure referenced by the
129 * aiocbp argument. The error status for an asynchronous I/O operation is the errno
130 * value that would be set by the corresponding read(), write(), or fsync()
131 * operation. If the operation has not yet completed, then the error status shall
132 * be equal to [EINPROGRESS].
134 int aio_error( const struct aiocb

137 * Asynchronously force all I/O operations associated with the file indicated by
138 * the file descriptor aio_fildes member of the aiocb structure referenced by the
139 * aiocbp argument and queued at the time of the call to aio_fsync() to the
140 * synchronized I/O completion state. The function call shall return when the
141 * synchronization request has been initiated or queued. op O_SYNC is the only
142 * supported opertation at this time.
143 * The aiocbp argument refers to an asynchronous I/O control block. The aiocbp
144 * value may be used as an argument to aio_error() and aio_return() in order to
145 * determine the error status and return status, respectively, of the asynchronous
146 * operation while it is proceeding. When the request is queued, the error status
147 * for the operation is [EINPROGRESS]. When all data has been successfully
148 * transferred, the error status shall be reset to reflect the success or failure

155 * Read aiocbp->aio_nbytes from the file associated with aiocbp->aio_fildes into
156 * the buffer pointed to by aiocbp->aio_buf. The function call shall return when
157 * the read request has been initiated or queued.
158 * The aiocbp value may be used as an argument to aio_error() and aio_return() in
159 * order to determine the error status and return status, respectively, of the
160 * asynchronous operation while it is proceeding. If an error condition is
161 * encountered during queuing, the function call shall return without having
162 * initiated or queued the request. The requested operation takes place at the
163 * absolute position in the file as given by aio_offset, as if lseek() were called
164 * immediately prior to the operation with an offset equal to aio_offset and a
165 * whence equal to SEEK_SET. After a successful call to enqueue an asynchronous
166 * I/O operation, the value of the file offset for the file is unspecified.
168 int aio_read( struct aiocb

171 * Return the return status associated with the aiocb structure referenced by
172 * the aiocbp argument. The return status for an asynchronous I/O operation is
173 * the value that would be returned by the corresponding read(), write(), or
174 * fsync() function call. If the error status for the operation is equal to
175 * [EINPROGRESS], then the return status for the operation is undefined. The
176 * aio_return() function may be called exactly once to retrieve the return status
177 * of a given asynchronous operation; thereafter, if the same aiocb structure
178 * is used in a call to aio_return() or aio_error(), an error may be returned.
179 * When the aiocb structure referred to by aiocbp is used to submit another
180 * asynchronous operation, then aio_return() may be successfully used to
181 * retrieve the return status of that operation.

186 * Suspend the calling thread until at least one of the asynchronous I/O
187 * operations referenced by the aiocblist argument has completed, until a signal
188 * interrupts the function, or, if timeout is not NULL, until the time
189 * interval specified by timeout has passed. If any of the aiocb structures
190 * in the aiocblist correspond to completed asynchronous I/O operations (that is,
191 * the error status for the operation is not equal to [EINPROGRESS]) at the
192 * time of the call, the function shall return without suspending the calling
193 * thread. The aiocblist argument is an array of pointers to asynchronous I/O
194 * control blocks. The nent argument indicates the number of elements in the
195 * array. Each aiocb structure pointed to has been used in initiating an
196 * asynchronous I/O request via aio_read(), aio_write(), or lio_listio(). This
197 * array may contain NULL pointers, which are ignored.

205 * the buffer pointed to by aiocbp->aio_buf. The function shall return when the
206 * write request has been initiated or, at a minimum, queued.
207 * The aiocbp argument may be used as an argument to aio_error() and aio_return()
208 * in order to determine the error status and return status, respectively, of the
209 * asynchronous operation while it is proceeding.

214 * Initiate a list of I/O requests with a single function call. The mode
215 * argument takes one of the values LIO_WAIT or LIO_NOWAIT and determines whether
216 * the function returns when the I/O operations have been completed, or as soon
217 * as the operations have been queued. If the mode argument is LIO_WAIT, the
218 * function shall wait until all I/O is complete and the sig argument shall be
220 * If the mode argument is LIO_NOWAIT, the function shall return immediately, and
221 * asynchronous notification shall occur, according to the sig argument, when all
222 * the I/O operations complete. If sig is NULL, then no asynchronous notification
