NAME

       aio_return - get return status of asynchronous I/O operation

LIBRARY

       Real-time library (librt, -lrt)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <aio.h>

       ssize_t aio_return(struct aiocb *aiocbp);

DESCRIPTION

       The  aio_return()  function returns the final return status for the asynchronous I/O request with control
       block pointed to by aiocbp.  (See aio(7) for a description of the aiocb structure.)

       This function should be called only once for any given  request,  after  aio_error(3)  returns  something
       other than EINPROGRESS.

RETURN VALUE

       If  the  asynchronous  I/O  operation has completed, this function returns the value that would have been
       returned in case of a synchronous read(2), write(2), fsync(2), or fdatasync(2), call.  On  error,  -1  is
       returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.

       If  the asynchronous I/O operation has not yet completed, the return value and effect of aio_return() are
       undefined.

ERRORS

       EINVAL aiocbp does not point at a control block for an asynchronous  I/O  request  of  which  the  return
              status has not been retrieved yet.

       ENOSYS aio_return() is not implemented.
