AIO_SUSPEND(2) FreeBSD System Calls Manual AIO_SUSPEND(2)

NAME
aio_suspend -- suspend until asynchronous I/O operations or timeout com-
plete (REALTIME)

LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
#include <aio.h>

int
aio_suspend(const struct aiocb * const iocbs[], int niocb,
const struct timespec * timeout);

DESCRIPTION
The aio_suspend() system call suspends the calling process until at least
one of the specified asynchronous I/O requests have completed, a signal
is delivered, or the timeout has passed.

The iocbs argument is an array of niocb pointers to asynchronous I/O
requests. Array members containing null pointers will be silently
ignored.

If timeout is not a null pointer, it specifies a maximum interval to sus-
pend. If timeout is a null pointer, the suspend blocks indefinitely. To
effect a poll, the timeout should point to a zero-value timespec struc-
ture.

RETURN VALUES
If one or more of the specified asynchronous I/O requests have completed,
aio_suspend() returns 0. Otherwise it returns -1 and sets errno to indi-
cate the error, as enumerated below.

ERRORS
The aio_suspend() system call will fail if:

[EAGAIN] the timeout expired before any I/O requests completed.

[EINVAL] The iocbs argument contains more than AIO_LISTIO_MAX
asynchronous I/O requests, or at least one of the
requests is not valid.

[EINTR] the suspend was interrupted by a signal.

STANDARDS
The aio_suspend() system call is expected to conform to the IEEE Std
1003.1 (``POSIX.1'') standard.

HISTORY
The aio_suspend() system call first appeared in FreeBSD 3.0.
