It's a part of the standard C library, apparently.  Five seconds with tkinfo
and the info docs for glibc found a whole section on Asynchronous I/O.  I
don't know if it's POSIX, but a comment at the top of the header file looks
awfully officious to me:

/*
 * ISO/IEC 9945-1:1996 6.7: Asynchronous Input and Output
 */

No idea how to make it work, but I'm sure you can read the docs and find out
for yourself.

I have no idea about the function calls themselves, but I would assume
that you have to mount the filesystem that you're working on ayncio - it's
a mount option.

$0.02.

[SLUG] Asynchronous I/O

2001-06-04 Thread kiran



hello,
this is kiran.  I am using Red Hat linux 
version 7.0.  kernel version is 2.2.16-22.  i want to know does this 
support POSIX aio(aysnchrounous io calls).  He has given header file 
/usr/include/aio.h but when i use the functions aio_read or aio_write it is 
giving in compilation saying undefined reference.  and i tried to find out 
the library for this aio.  but i am not able to.  so if any one knows 
about this please tell me, whether this is having aio support or how to make it 
work.
with regards,
kiran
