AIO_RETURN(3)           Linux Programmer's Manual          AIO_RETURN(3)

NAME         top

       aio_return - get return status of asynchronous I/O operation

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <aio.h>

       ssize_t aio_return(struct aiocb *aiocbp);

       Link with -lrt.

DESCRIPTION         top

       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         top

       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.
       On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.

       If the asynchronous I/O operation has not yet completed, the
       return value and effect of aio_return() are undefined.

ERRORS         top

       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         top

       The aio_return() function is available since glibc 2.1.
