IO_GETEVENTS(2) Linux Programmer’s Manual IO_GETEVENTS(2)
NAME
io_getevents - Read asynchronous I/O events from the completion queue
SYNOPSIS
#include <linux/time.h>
#include <linux/aio.h>
long io_getevents (aio_context_t ctx_id, long min_nr, long nr,
struct io_event *events, struct timespec *timeout);
DESCRIPTION
io_getevents attempts to read at least min_nr events and up to nr events from the
completion queue of the AIO context specified by ctx_id. timeout specifies the
amount of time to wait for events, where a NULL timeout waits until at least min_nr
events have been seen. Note that timeout is relative and will be updated if not
NULL and the operation blocks.
RETURN VALUE
io_getevents returns the number of events read: 0 if no events are available or <
min_nr if the timeout has elapsed.
ERRORS
EINVAL ctx_id is invalid. min_nr is out of range or nr is out of range.
EFAULT Either events or timeout is an invalid pointer.
ENOSYS io_getevents is not implemented on this architecture.
CONFORMING TO
io_getevents is Linux specific and should not be used in programs that are intended
to be portable.
VERSIONS
The asynchronous I/O system calls first appeared in Linux 2.5, August 2002.
