No callback will be invoked if io_cancel(2) every cancels the request immediately. The current kernel implementation always returns -EINPROGRESS or some of other error value. But some day it might return 0 and this would leak the request! > + > + laiocb->common.cb(laiocb->common.opaque, laiocb->ret); > +} It would be cleaner to reuse laio_cancel_async() from laio_cancel() to avoid code duplication. For example, there is a useful comment in laio_cancel() explaining that io_cancel(2) doesn't cancel I/O in practice on 2.6.31 era kernels.
