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.
