.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The
|
2005-10-19 06:54:38 +00:00
|
|
|
.BR aio_cancel ()
|
2004-11-03 13:51:07 +00:00
|
|
|
function attempts to cancel outstanding asynchronous I/O requests
|
|
|
|
for the file descriptor
|
|
|
|
.IR fd .
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
|
|
.I aiocbp
|
|
|
|
is NULL, all such requests are cancelled. Otherwise, only the request
|
|
|
|
described by the control block pointed to by
|
|
|
|
.I aiocbp
|
|
|
|
is cancelled.
|
|
|
|
.LP
|
|
|
|
Normal asynchronous notification occurs for cancelled requests.
|
|
|
|
The request return status is set to \-1, and the request error status
|
|
|
|
is set to ECANCELED.
|
|
|
|
The control block of requests that cannot be cancelled is not changed.
|
|
|
|
.LP
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
|
|
.I aiocbp
|
|
|
|
is not NULL, and
|
|
|
|
.I fd
|
|
|
|
differs from the file descriptor with which the asynchronous operation
|
|
|
|
was initiated, unspecified results occur.
|
|
|
|
.LP
|
|
|
|
Which operations are cancelable is implementation-defined.
|
|
|
|
.\" FreeBSD: not those on raw disk devices.
|
|
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
|
|
This function returns AIO_CANCELED if all requests were successfully
|
|
|
|
cancelled. It returns AIO_NOTCANCELED when at least one of the
|
|
|
|
requests specified was not cancelled because it was in progress.
|
|
|
|
In this case one may check the status of individual requests using
|
|
|
|
.BR aio_error (3).
|
|
|
|
This function returns AIO_ALLDONE when all requests had
|
|
|
|
been completed already before this call.
|
|
|
|
When some error occurs, \-1 is returned, and
|
|
|
|
.I errno
|
|
|
|
is set appropriately.
