220 * of a given asynchronous operation; thereafter, if the same aiocb structure
221 * is used in a call to aio_return() or aio_error(), an error may be returned.

236 * thread. The aiocblist argument is an array of pointers to asynchronous I/O
237 * control blocks. The nent argument indicates the number of elements in the
