NAME
io - Asynchronous IOSYNOPSYS
#include <errno.h>
#include <libaio.h>
DESCRIPTION
The libaio library defines a new set of I/O operations which can significantly reduce the time an application spends waiting at I/O. The new functions allow a program to initiate one or more I/O operations and then immediately resume normal work while the I/O operations are executed in parallel.These functions are part of the library with realtime functions named libaio. They are not actually part of the libc binary. The implementation of these functions can be done using support in the kernel.
All IO operations operate on files which were opened previously. There might be arbitrarily many operations running for one file. The asynchronous I/O operations are controlled using a data structure named struct iocb It is defined in libaio.h as follows.
typedef struct io_context *io_context_t; typedef enum io_iocb_cmd { IO_CMD_PREAD = 0, IO_CMD_PWRITE = 1, IO_CMD_FSYNC = 2, IO_CMD_FDSYNC = 3, IO_CMD_POLL = 5, IO_CMD_NOOP = 6, } io_iocb_cmd_t; struct io_iocb_common { void *buf; unsigned __pad1; long nbytes; unsigned __pad2; long long offset; long long __pad3, __pad4; }; /* result code is the amount read or -'ve errno */ struct iocb { void *data; unsigned key; short aio_lio_opcode; short aio_reqprio; int aio_fildes; union { struct io_iocb_common c; struct io_iocb_vector v; struct io_iocb_poll poll; struct io_iocb_sockaddr saddr; } u; };
- int aio_fildes
- This element specifies the file descriptor to be used for the operation. It must be a legal descriptor, otherwise the operation will fail.
The device on which the file is opened must allow the seek operation. I.e., it is not possible to use any of the IO operations on devices like terminals where an lseek(2) call would lead to an error.
- long u.c.offset
- This element specifies the offset in the file at which the operation (input or output) is performed. Since the operations are carried out in arbitrary order and more than one operation for one file descriptor can be started, one cannot expect a current read/write position of the file descriptor.
- void *buf
- This is a pointer to the buffer with the data to be written or the place where the read data is stored.
- long u.c.nbytes
- This element specifies the length of the buffer pointed to by io_buf.
- int aio_reqprio
- Is not currently used.
- IO_CMD_PREAD
- Start a read operation. Read from the file at position u.c.offset and store the next u.c.nbytes bytes in the buffer pointed to by buf.
- IO_CMD_PWRITE
- Start a write operation. Write u.c.nbytes bytes starting at buf into the file starting at position u.c.offset.
- IO_CMD_NOP
- Do nothing for this control block. This value is useful sometimes when an array of struct iocb values contains holes, i.e., some of the values must not be handled although the whole array is presented to the io_submit function.
- IO_CMD_FSYNC
- IO_CMD_POLL
- This is experimental.
