AIO_ERROR(3)                  Linux Programmer's Manual                  AIO_ERROR(3)

NAME         top

       aio_error - get error status of asynchronous I/O operation

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <aio.h>

       int aio_error(const struct aiocb *aiocbp);

       Link with -lrt.

DESCRIPTION         top

       The aio_error() function returns the error status for the asynchronous I/O
       request with control block pointed to by aiocbp.  (See aio(7) for a
       description of the aiocb structure.)

RETURN VALUE         top

       This function returns one of the following:

       *  EINPROGRESS, if the request has not been completed yet.

       *  ECANCELED, if the request was canceled.

       *  0, if the request completed successfully.

       *  A positive error, if the asynchronous I/O operation failed.  This is the
          same value that would have been stored in the errno variable in the case of
          a synchronous read(2), write(2), fsync(2), or fdatasync(2) call.

ERRORS         top

       EINVAL aiocbp does not point at a control block for an asynchronous I/O
              request of which the return status (see aio_return(3)) has not been
              retrieved yet.

VERSIONS         top

       The aio_error() function is available since glibc 2.1.

CONFORMING TO         top

       POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008.

EXAMPLE         top

       See aio(7).
