NAME

libaio - the asynchronous I/O library

SYNOPSIS

cc [ flag . . . ] file . . . -laio [ library . . . ]

DESCRIPTION

Functions in this library provide routines for asynchronous I/O.
The shared object libaio.so.1 provides the public interfaces defined below.
For additional information on shared object interfaces, see intro(4).

INTERFACES

SISCD_2.3 (SPARC only) - The SPARC Compliance Definition, revision 2.3:
  aiocancel                  aioread                     aiowait
  aiowrite

SUNW_1.1 (generic):
  aio_close                  aio_fork                    aioread64
  aiowrite64                 assfail                     close
  fork                       sigaction                   sigignore
  signal                     sigset

SUNW_1.1 (SPARC) -
This interface inherits all definitions from the generic
SUNW_1.1 and the SISCD_2.3.
SUNW_1.1 (i386) -
This interface contains all definitions from SISCD_2.3, and
inherits all definitions from the generic SUNW_1.1.
