.TH aio_waitn 3C "18 Dec 2008" "SunOS 5.11" "Standard C Library Functions"
.SH NAME
aio_waitn \- wait for completion of asynchronous I/O operations
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
#include <aio.h>
\fBint\fR \fBaio_waitn\fR(\fBstruct aiocb *\fR\fIlist\fR[], \fBuint_t\fR \fInent\fR,
\fBuint_t *\fR\fInwait\fR, \fBconst struct timespec *\fR\fItimeout\fR);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBaio_waitn()\fR function suspends the calling thread until at least the
number of requests specified by \fInwait\fR have completed, until a signal
interrupts the function, or if \fItimeout\fR is not \fINULL\fR, until the time
interval specified by \fItimeout\fR has passed.
.sp
.LP
To effect a poll, the \fItimeout\fR argument should be non-zero, pointing to a
zero-valued \fBtimespec\fR structure.
.sp
.LP
The \fIlist\fR argument is an array of uninitialized I/O completion block
pointers to be filled in by the system before \fBaio_waitn()\fR returns. The
\fInent\fR argument indicates the maximum number of elements that can be placed
in \fIlist\fR[] and is limited to \fB_AIO_LISTIO_MAX\fR = 4096.
.sp
.LP
The \fInwait\fR argument points to the minimum number of requests
\fBaio_waitn()\fR should wait for. Upon returning, the content of \fInwait\fR
is set to the actual number of requests in the \fBaiocb\fR list, which can be
greater than the initial value specified in \fInwait\fR. The \fBaio_waitn()\fR
function attempts to return as many requests as possible, up to the number of
outstanding asynchronous I/Os but less than or equal to the maximum specified
by the \fInent\fR argument. As soon as the number of outstanding asynchronous
I/O requests becomes 0, \fBaio_waitn()\fR returns with the current list of
completed requests.
.sp
.LP
The \fBaiocb\fR structures returned will have been used in initiating an
asynchronous I/O request from any thread in the process with
\fBaio_read\fR(3C), \fBaio_write\fR(3C), or \fBlio_listio\fR(3C).
.sp
.LP
If the time interval expires before the expected number of I/O operations
specified by \fInwait\fR are completed, \fBaio_waitn()\fR returns the number of
completed requests and the content of the \fInwait\fR pointer is updated with
that number.
.sp
.LP
If \fBaio_waitn()\fR is interrupted by a signal, \fInwait\fR is set to the
number of completed requests.
.sp
.LP
The application can determine the status of the completed asynchronous I/O by
checking the associated error and return status using \fBaio_error\fR(3C) and
\fBaio_return\fR(3C), respectively.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.LP
Upon successful completion, \fBaio_waitn()\fR returns 0. Otherwise, it returns
-1 and sets \fBerrno\fR to indicate the error.
.SH ERRORS
.sp
.LP
The \fBaio_waitn()\fR function will fail if:
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBEAGAIN\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 10n
.rt
There are no outstanding asynchronous I/O requests.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBEFAULT\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 10n
.rt
The \fIlist\fR[], \fInwait\fR, or \fItimeout\fR argument points to an address
outside the address space of the process. The \fBerrno\fR variable is set to
\fBEFAULT\fR only if this condition is detected by the application process.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBEINTR\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 10n
.rt
The execution of \fBaio_waitn()\fR was interrupted by a signal.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBEINVAL\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 10n
.rt
The \fItimeout\fR element \fItv_sec\fR or \fItv_nsec\fR is < 0, \fInent\fR is
set to 0 or > \fB_AIO_LISTIO_MAX\fR, or \fInwait\fR is either set to 0 or is >
\fInent\fR.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBENOMEM\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 10n
.rt
There is currently not enough available memory. The application can try again
later.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBETIME\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 10n
.rt
The time interval expired before \fInwait\fR outstanding requests have
completed.
.RE
.SH USAGE
.sp
.LP
The \fBaio_waitn()\fR function has a transitional interface for 64-bit file
offsets. See \fBlf64\fR(5).
