- .SH NAME
- aio_return
- \(em retrieve return status of an asynchronous I/O operation
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .LP
- .nf
- #include <aio.h>
- .P
- ssize_t aio_return(struct aiocb *\fIaiocbp\fP);
- .fi
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- The
- \fIaio_return\fR()
- function shall return the return status associated with the
- .BR aiocb
- structure referenced by the
- .IR aiocbp
- argument. The return status for an asynchronous I/O operation is the
- value that would be returned by the corresponding
- \fIread\fR(),
- \fIwrite\fR(),
- or
- \fIfsync\fR()
- function call. If the error status for the operation is equal to
- .BR [EINPROGRESS] ,
- then the return status for the operation is undefined. The
- \fIaio_return\fR()
- function may be called exactly once to retrieve the return status of a
- given asynchronous operation; thereafter, if the same
- .BR aiocb
- structure is used in a call to
- \fIaio_return\fR()
- or
- \fIaio_error\fR(),
- an error may be returned. When the
- .BR aiocb
- structure referred to by
- .IR aiocbp
- is used to submit another asynchronous operation, then
- \fIaio_return\fR()
- may be successfully used to retrieve the return status of that
- operation.
- .SH "RETURN VALUE"
- If the asynchronous I/O operation has completed, then the return
- status, as described for
- \fIread\fR(),
- \fIwrite\fR(),
- and
- \fIfsync\fR(),
- shall be returned. If the asynchronous I/O operation has not yet
- completed, the results of
- \fIaio_return\fR()
- are undefined.
- .P
- If the
- \fIaio_return\fR()
- function fails, it shall return \-1 and set
- .IR errno
- to indicate the error.
- .SH ERRORS
- The
- \fIaio_return\fR()
- function may fail if:
- .TP
- .BR EINVAL
- The
- .IR aiocbp
- argument does not refer to an asynchronous operation whose return
- status has not yet been retrieved.
