NAME
       aio_return - retrieve return status of an asynchronous I/O operation (REALTIME)


SYNOPSIS
       #include <aio.h>

       ssize_t aio_return(struct aiocb *aiocbp);


DESCRIPTION
       The  aio_return()  function shall return the return status associated with the aiocb structure referenced
       by the aiocbp argument. The return status for an asynchronous I/O operation is the value  that  would  be
       returned  by  the  corresponding  read(),  write(), or fsync() function call. If the error status for the
       operation is equal to [EINPROGRESS],  then  the  return  status  for  the  operation  is  undefined.  The
       aio_return()  function  may  be called exactly once to retrieve the return status of a given asynchronous
       operation; thereafter, if the same aiocb structure is used in a call to aio_return() or  aio_error(),  an
       error  may  be  returned.   When  the  aiocb  structure  referred  to by aiocbp is used to submit another
       asynchronous operation, then aio_return() may be successfully used to retrieve the return status of  that
       operation.


RETURN VALUE
       If  the  asynchronous  I/O  operation  has  completed,  then  the return status, as described for read(),
       write(), and fsync(), shall be returned. If the asynchronous I/O operation has  not  yet  completed,  the
       results of aio_return() are undefined.


ERRORS
       The aio_return() function may fail if:

       EINVAL The  aiocbp  argument  does not refer to an asynchronous operation whose return status has not yet
              been retrieved.

       The following sections are informative.


EXAMPLES
       None.


APPLICATION USAGE
       The aio_return() function is part of the Asynchronous Input and Output option and need not  be  available
       on all implementations.


RATIONALE
       None.


FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
