Posix AIO can suffer from severe - limitations. For example, on some Linux versions the - real-time signals that it uses are broken under heavy load. - Other systems only allow AIO when special kernel modules are - loaded or only allow a certain system-wide amount of async - requests being scheduled. Systems based on glibc (most Linux - systems) only allow a single outstanding request per file - descriptor. </p><p>To work around all these limitations, the aio_fork module - was written. It uses forked helper processes instead of the - internal Posix AIO interface to create asynchronousity for - read and write calls. It has no parameters, it will create - helper processes when async requests come in as needed. Idle - helper processes will be removed every 30 seconds. - </p><p>This module is stackable.</p></div><div class="refsect1" title="EXAMPLES"><a name="id266837"></a><h2>EXAMPLES</h2><p>Straight forward use:</p><pre class="programlisting"> - <em class="parameter"><code>[cooldata]</code></em> - <a class="link" href="smb.conf.5.html#PATH" target="_top">path = /data/ice</a> - <a class="link" href="smb.conf.5.html#VFSOBJECTS" target="_top">vfs objects = aio_fork</a> -</pre></div><div class="refsect1" title="VERSION"><a name="id266880"></a><h2>VERSION</h2><p>This man page is correct for version 3.6.0 of the Samba suite. - </p></div><div class="refsect1" title="AUTHOR"><a name="id266889"></a><h2>AUTHOR</h2><p>The original Samba software and related utilities - were created by Andrew Tridgell.
