-.TH io_cancel 2 2002-09-03 "Linux 2.4" "Linux AIO"
-.SH NAME
-io_cancel \- Cancel io requests
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.B #include <errno.h>
-.sp
-.br
-.B #include <libaio.h>
-.sp
-.br
-.BI "int io_cancel(io_context_t ctx, struct iocb *iocb)"
-.br
-.sp
-struct iocb {
- void *data; /* Return in the io completion event */
- unsigned key; /* For use in identifying io requests */
- short aio_lio_opcode;
- short aio_reqprio; /* Not used */
- int aio_fildes;
-};
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-Attempts to cancel an iocb previously passed to io_submit. If
-the operation is successfully cancelled, the resulting event is
-copied into the memory pointed to by result without being placed
-into the completion queue.
-.PP
-When one or more requests are asynchronously processed, it might be
-useful in some situations to cancel a selected operation, e.g., if it
-becomes obvious that the written data is no longer accurate and would
-have to be overwritten soon. As an example, assume an application, which
-writes data in files in a situation where new incoming data would have
-to be written in a file which will be updated by an enqueued request.
-.SH "RETURN VALUES"
-0 is returned on success , otherwise returns Errno.
-.SH ERRORS
-.TP
-.B EFAULT
-If any of the data structures pointed to are invalid.
-.TP
-.B EINVAL
-If aio_context specified by ctx_id is
-invalid.
-.TP
-.B EAGAIN
-If the iocb specified was not
-cancelled.
-.TP
-.B ENOSYS
-if not implemented.
