|

.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In aio.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn aio_read "struct aiocb *iocb"
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn aio_read2 "struct aiocb *iocb" "int flags"
|
|
.In sys/uio.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn aio_readv "struct aiocb *iocb"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn aio_read ,
|
|
.Fn aio_read2
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn aio_readv
|
|
system calls allow the calling process to read
|
|
from the descriptor
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_fildes .
|
|
The syscalls return immediately after the read request has
|
|
been enqueued to the descriptor; the read may or may not have
|
|
completed at the time the call returns.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For the
|
|
.Fn aio_read
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn aio_readv
|
|
calls, the read begins at the offset
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_offset .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn aio_read
|
|
call will read
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_nbytes
|
|
into the buffer pointed to by
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_buf ,
|
|
whereas
|
|
.Fn aio_readv
|
|
reads the data into the
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_iovcnt
|
|
buffers specified by the members of the
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_iov
|
|
array.
|
|
For
|
|
.Fn aio_readv
|
|
the
|
|
.Fa iovec
|
|
structure is defined in
|
|
.Xr readv 2 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn aio_read2
|
|
call takes the
|
|
.Fa flags
|
|
argument.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa flags
|
|
is passed as zero, the call behaves identically to
|
|
.Fn aio_read .
|
|
The following flags can be specified by logical or:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width AIO_OP2_VECTORED
|
|
.It AIO_OP2_FOFFSET
|
|
The read occurs at the file descriptor offset,
|
|
which is advanced by the operation as done by the
|
|
.Xr read 2
|
|
syscall.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_offset
|
|
field is ignored.
|
|
.It AIO_OP2_VECTORED
|
|
Similar to
|
|
.Fn aio_readv ,
|
|
the read buffers are specified by the
|
|
.Fa aiocb->aio_iov
|
|
array.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa iocb
|
|
pointer may be subsequently used as an argument to
|
|
.Fn aio_return
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn aio_error
|
|
in order to determine return or error status for the enqueued operation
|
|
while it is in progress.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the request could not be enqueued (generally due to invalid arguments),
|
|
then the call returns without having enqueued the request.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the request is successfully enqueued, the value of
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_offset
|
|
can be modified during the request as context, so this value must
|
|
not be referenced after the request is enqueued.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_sigevent
|
|
structure can be used to request notification of the operation's
|
|
completion as described in
|
|
.Xr aio 4 .
|
|
.Sh RESTRICTIONS
|
|
The Asynchronous I/O Control Block structure pointed to by
|
|
.Fa iocb
|
|
and the buffer that the
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_buf
|
|
member of that structure references must remain valid until the
|
|
operation has completed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The asynchronous I/O control buffer
|
|
.Fa iocb
|
|
should be zeroed before the system
|
|
calls to avoid passing bogus context information to the kernel.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Modifications of the Asynchronous I/O Control Block structure or the
|
|
buffer contents are not allowed while the request is queued.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the file offset in
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_offset
|
|
is past the offset maximum for
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_fildes ,
|
|
no I/O will occur.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
.Rv -std aio_read aio_read2 aio_readv
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
None.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn aio_read ,
|
|
.Fn aio_read2 ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn aio_readv
|
|
system calls will fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EAGAIN
|
|
The request was not queued because of system resource limitations.
|
|
.It Bq Er EFAULT
|
|
Part of
|
|
.Fa aio_iov
|
|
points outside the process's allocated address space.
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
The asynchronous notification method in
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_sigevent.sigev_notify
|
|
is invalid or not supported.
|
|
.It Bq Er EOPNOTSUPP
|
|
Asynchronous read operations on the file descriptor
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_fildes
|
|
are unsafe and unsafe asynchronous I/O operations are disabled.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following conditions may be synchronously detected when the
|
|
.Fn aio_read
|
|
or
|
|
.Fn aio_readv
|
|
system call is made, or asynchronously, at any time thereafter.
|
|
If they
|
|
are detected at call time,
|
|
The calls return -1 and set
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
appropriately; otherwise the
|
|
.Fn aio_return
|
|
system call must be called, and will return -1, and
|
|
.Fn aio_error
|
|
must be called to determine the actual value that would have been
|
|
returned in
|
|
.Va errno .
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EBADF
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_fildes
|
|
argument
|
|
is invalid.
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
The offset
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_offset
|
|
is not valid, the priority specified by
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_reqprio
|
|
is not a valid priority, or the number of bytes specified by
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_nbytes
|
|
is not valid.
|
|
.It Bq Er EOVERFLOW
|
|
The file is a regular file,
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_nbytes
|
|
is greater than zero, the starting offset in
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_offset
|
|
is before the end of the file, but is at or beyond the
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_fildes
|
|
offset maximum.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the request is successfully enqueued, but subsequently cancelled
|
|
or an error occurs, the value returned by the
|
|
.Fn aio_return
|
|
system call is per the
|
|
.Xr read 2
|
|
system call, and the value returned by the
|
|
.Fn aio_error
|
|
system call is either one of the error returns from the
|
|
.Xr read 2
|
|
system call, or one of:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EBADF
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_fildes
|
|
argument
|
|
is invalid for reading.
|
|
.It Bq Er ECANCELED
|
|
The request was explicitly cancelled via a call to
|
|
.Fn aio_cancel .
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
The offset
|
|
.Fa iocb->aio_offset
|
|
would be invalid.
