NAME
aio_return -- retrieve return status of asynchronous I/O operation (REALTIME) LIBRARY
POSIX Real-time Library (librt, -lrt) SYNOPSIS
#include <aio.h> ssize_t aio_return(struct aiocb *aiocbp); DESCRIPTION
The aio_return() system call returns the final status of the asynchronous I/O request associated with the structure pointed to by aiocbp. The aio_return() system call should only be called once, to obtain the final status of an asynchronous I/O operation once it has completed (aio_error(3) returns something other than EINPROGRESS). RETURN VALUES
If the asynchronous I/O request has completed, the status is returned as described in read(2), write(2), or fsync(2). Otherwise, aio_return() returns -1 and sets errno to indicate the error condition. ERRORS
The aio_return() system call will fail if: [EINVAL] The aiocbp argument does not reference a completed asynchronous I/O request. SEE ALSO
fsync(2), read(2), write(2), aio(3) STANDARDS
The aio_return() system call is expected to conform to the IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'') standard. HISTORY
The aio_return() system call first appeared in NetBSD 5.0. BSD
August 13, 2011 BSD

NAME
aio_return - get return status of asynchronous I/O operation SYNOPSIS
#include <aio.h> ssize_t aio_return(struct aiocb *aiocbp); Link with -lrt. DESCRIPTION
The aio_return() function returns the final return status for the asynchronous I/O request with control block pointed to by aiocbp. (See aio(7) for a description of the aiocb structure.) This function should be called only once for any given request, after aio_error(3) returns something other than EINPROGRESS. RETURN VALUE
If the asynchronous I/O operation has completed, this function returns the value that would have been returned in case of a synchronous read(2), write(2), fsync(2) or fdatasync(2), call. If the asynchronous I/O operation has not yet completed, the return value and effect of aio_return() are undefined. ERRORS
EINVAL aiocbp does not point at a control block for an asynchronous I/O request of which the return status has not been retrieved yet. ENOSYS aio_return() is not implemented. VERSIONS
The aio_return() function is available since glibc 2.1. CONFORMING TO
