29.Os
30.Sh NAME
31.Nm aio_return
32.Nd retrieve return status of asynchronous I/O operation (REALTIME)
33.Sh LIBRARY
34.Lb libc
35.Sh SYNOPSIS
36.In aio.h
37.Ft ssize_t
38.Fn aio_return "struct aiocb *iocb"
39.Sh DESCRIPTION
40The
41.Fn aio_return
42system call returns the final status of the asynchronous I/O request
43associated with the structure pointed to by
44.Fa iocb .
45.Pp
46The
47.Fn aio_return
48system call
49should only be called once, to obtain the final status of an asynchronous
50I/O operation once it has completed
51.Xr ( aio_error 2
52returns something other than
53.Er EINPROGRESS ) .
54.Sh RETURN VALUES
55If the asynchronous I/O request has completed, the status is returned
56as described in
57.Xr read 2 ,
58.Xr readv 2 ,
59.Xr write 2 ,
60.Xr writev 2 ,
61or
62.Xr fsync 2 .
63Otherwise,
64.Fn aio_return
65returns \-1 and sets
66.Va errno
67to indicate the error condition.
68.Sh ERRORS
69The
70.Fn aio_return
71system call will fail if:
72.Bl -tag -width Er
73.It Bq Er EINVAL
74The
75.Fa iocb
76argument
77does not reference a completed asynchronous I/O request.
78.It Bq Er EINVAL
79The I/O operation was submitted with
80.Fn lio_listio ,
81and the value of the
82.Fa aio_lio_opcode
83is invalid.

95.Sh STANDARDS
96The
97.Fn aio_return
98system call
99is expected to conform to the
100.St -p1003.1
101standard.
