.PP

|
.BR io_submit ()
|
|
queues \fInr\fR I/O request blocks for processing in
|
|
the AIO context \fIctx_id\fR. \fIiocbpp\fR should be an array of
|
|
\fInr\fR AIO request blocks,
|
|
which will be submitted to context \fIctx_id\fR.
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
.PP
|
|
On success,
|
|
.BR io_submit ()
|
|
returns the number of \fIiocb\fRs submitted (which may be
|
|
0 if \fInr\fR is zero);
|
|
on failure, it returns one of the errors listed under ERRORS.
|
|
.SH "ERRORS"
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B EINVAL
|
|
The \fIaio_context\fR specified by \fIctx_id\fR is invalid.
|
|
\fInr\fR is less than 0. The \fIiocb\fR at *iocbpp[0] is not properly
|
|
initialized, or the operation specified is invalid for the file descriptor
|
|
in the \fIiocb\fR.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B EFAULT
|
|
One of the data structures points to invalid data.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B EBADF
|
|
The file descriptor specified in the first \fIiocb\fR is invalid.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B EAGAIN
|
|
Insufficient resources are available to queue any \fIiocb\fRs.
