153 * value that would be set by the corresponding read(), write(), or fsync()

163 * synchronized I/O completion state. The function call shall return when the
164 * synchronization request has been initiated or queued. op O_SYNC is the only
165 * supported opertation at this time.
166 * The aiocbp argument refers to an asynchronous I/O control block. The aiocbp
167 * value may be used as an argument to aio_error() and aio_return() in order to
168 * determine the error status and return status, respectively, of the asynchronous
169 * operation while it is proceeding. When the request is queued, the error status
170 * for the operation is [EINPROGRESS]. When all data has been successfully

184 * encountered during queuing, the function call shall return without having
185 * initiated or queued the request. The requested operation takes place at the
186 * absolute position in the file as given by aio_offset, as if lseek() were called
187 * immediately prior to the operation with an offset equal to aio_offset and a
188 * whence equal to SEEK_SET. After a successful call to enqueue an asynchronous
189 * I/O operation, the value of the file offset for the file is unspecified.

195 * the aiocbp argument. The return status for an asynchronous I/O operation is
196 * the value that would be returned by the corresponding read(), write(), or
197 * fsync() function call. If the error status for the operation is equal to
198 * [EINPROGRESS], then the return status for the operation is undefined. The
199 * aio_return() function may be called exactly once to retrieve the return status
200 * of a given asynchronous operation; thereafter, if the same aiocb structure
201 * is used in a call to aio_return() or aio_error(), an error may be returned.
202 * When the aiocb structure referred to by aiocbp is used to submit another
203 * asynchronous operation, then aio_return() may be successfully used to
204 * retrieve the return status of that operation.

212 * interval specified by timeout has passed. If any of the aiocb structures
213 * in the aiocblist correspond to completed asynchronous I/O operations (that is,
214 * the error status for the operation is not equal to [EINPROGRESS]) at the
215 * time of the call, the function shall return without suspending the calling
216 * thread. The aiocblist argument is an array of pointers to asynchronous I/O
217 * control blocks. The nent argument indicates the number of elements in the
218 * array. Each aiocb structure pointed to has been used in initiating an
219 * asynchronous I/O request via aio_read(), aio_write(), or lio_listio(). This
220 * array may contain NULL pointers, which are ignored.

230 * The aiocbp argument may be used as an argument to aio_error() and aio_return()

239 * the function returns when the I/O operations have been completed, or as soon
240 * as the operations have been queued. If the mode argument is LIO_WAIT, the
241 * function shall wait until all I/O is complete and the sig argument shall be
