AIO_CANCEL(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual AIO_CANCEL(3P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
aio_cancel — cancel an asynchronous I/O request
#include <aio.h>
int aio_cancel(int fildes, struct aiocb *aiocbp);
The aio_cancel() function shall attempt to cancel one or more
asynchronous I/O requests currently outstanding against file
descriptor fildes. The aiocbp argument points to the asynchronous
I/O control block for a particular request to be canceled. If aiocbp
is NULL, then all outstanding cancelable asynchronous I/O requests
against fildes shall be canceled.
Normal asynchronous notification shall occur for asynchronous I/O
operations that are successfully canceled. If there are requests that
cannot be canceled, then the normal asynchronous completion process
shall take place for those requests when they are completed.
For requested operations that are successfully canceled, the
associated error status shall be set to [ECANCELED] and the return
status shall be −1. For requested operations that are not
successfully canceled, the aiocbp shall not be modified by
aio_cancel().
If aiocbp is not NULL, then if fildes does not have the same value as
the file descriptor with which the asynchronous operation was
initiated, unspecified results occur.
Which operations are cancelable is implementation-defined.
The aio_cancel() function shall return the value AIO_CANCELED if the
requested operation(s) were canceled. The value AIO_NOTCANCELED
shall be returned if at least one of the requested operation(s)
cannot be canceled because it is in progress. In this case, the state
of the other operations, if any, referenced in the call to
aio_cancel() is not indicated by the return value of aio_cancel().
The application may determine the state of affairs for these
operations by using aio_error(). The value AIO_ALLDONE is returned
if all of the operations have already completed. Otherwise, the
function shall return −1 and set errno to indicate the error.
The aio_cancel() function shall fail if:
EBADF The fildes argument is not a valid file descriptor.
