NAME

       io_prep_pread - Set up asynchronous read

SYNOPSYS

       #include <errno.h>

       #include <libaio.h>

       inline void io_prep_pread(struct iocb *iocb, int fd, void *buf, size_t count, long long offset);
       "

       struct iocb {
            void      *data;
            unsigned  key;
            short          aio_lio_opcode;
            short          aio_reqprio;
            int       aio_fildes;
       };

DESCRIPTION

       io_prep_pread  is an inline convenience function designed to facilitate the initialization
       of the iocb for an asynchronous read operation.

       The first iocb->u.c.nbytes = count bytes of the file for which iocb->aio_fildes = fd is  a
       descriptor  are  written to the buffer starting at iocb->u.c.buf = buf.  Reading starts at
       the absolute position ioc->u.c.offset = offset in the file.

       This function returns immediately. To schedule the operation, the function io_submit  must
       be called.

       Simultaneous asynchronous operations using the same iocb produce undefined results.

RETURN VALUES

       None.

ERRORS

       None.
