NAME¶

io_prep_pwrite - Set up iocb for asynchronous writes

SYNOPSYS¶

#include <errno.h>
 

#include <libaio.h>
 

inline void io_prep_pwrite(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_write is a convenicence function for setting up parallel writes. The first iocb->u.c.nbytes = count bytes of the file for which iocb->aio_fildes = fd is a descriptor are written from the buffer starting at iocb->u.c.buf = buf. Writing 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.
