io_cancel(2) claims:

IO_CANCEL(2)               Linux Programmer’s Manual              IO_CANCEL(2)

NAME
       io_cancel - cancel an outstanding asynchronous I/O operation

SYNOPSIS
       #include <libaio.h>

       int io_cancel(aio_context_t ctx_id, struct iocb *iocb,
                     struct io_event *result);

       Link with -laio.

This doesn't compile though:

$ gcc -c test_iocancel.c
test_iocancel.c: In function ‘main’:
test_iocancel.c:5: error: ‘aio_context_t’ undeclared (first use in this
function)
test_iocancel.c:5: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
test_iocancel.c:5: error: for each function it appears in.)
test_iocancel.c:5: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘ctx’
test_iocancel.c:9: error: ‘ctx’ undeclared (first use in this function)
$ cat test_iocancel.c 
#include <libaio.h>
int
main(void)
{
    aio_context_t ctx;
    struct iocb cb;
    struct io_event res;

    return io_cancel(ctx, &cb, &res);
}
$ grep -r aio_context_t /usr/include/
/usr/include/linux/aio_abi.h:typedef unsigned long    aio_context_t;
$

The manpages are based off of Fedora 13, as is the image that I'm currently
running in VMware fusion.
