.Dt AIO_SUSPEND 2
|
|
.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm aio_suspend
|
|
.Nd suspend until asynchronous I/O operations or timeout complete (REALTIME)
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In aio.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn aio_suspend "const struct aiocb * const iocbs[]" "int niocb" "const struct timespec * timeout"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn aio_suspend
|
|
function suspends the calling process until at least one of the
|
|
specified asynchronous I/O requests have completed, a signal is
|
|
delivered, or the
|
|
.Fa timeout
|
|
has passed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fa iocbs
|
|
is an array of
|
|
.Fa niocb
|
|
pointers to asynchronous I/O requests. Array members containing
|
|
NULL will be silently ignored.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa timeout
|
|
is a non-nil pointer, it specifies a maximum interval to suspend.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa timeout
|
|
is a nil pointer, the suspend blocks indefinitely. To effect a
|
|
poll, the
|
|
.Fa timeout
|
|
should point to a zero-value timespec structure.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
If one or more of the specified asynchronous I/O requests have
|
|
completed,
|
|
.Fn aio_suspend
|
|
returns 0. Otherwise it returns -1 and sets
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
to indicate the error, as enumerated below.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn aio_suspend
|
|
function will fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EAGAIN
|
|
the
|
|
.Fa timeout
|
|
expired before any I/O requests completed.
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
.Fa iocbs
|
|
contains more than
|
|
.Dv AIO_LISTIO_MAX
|
|
asynchronous I/O requests, or at least one of the requests is not
|
|
valid.
|
|
.It Bq Er EINTR
|
|
the suspend was interrupted by a signal.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh KERNEL OPTIONS
|
|
The following kernel configuration option
|
|
(see
|
|
.Xr config 8 )
|
|
is required:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl "options VFS_AIO"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If you do not want AIO support included in the kernel, but
|
|
want to use it occasionally, do not add the
|
|
.Dv VFS_AIO
|
|
option. Instead, load the
|
|
.Nm aio
|
|
module as desired:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl kldload aio
|
|
