libaio tarballs on <kernel.org>

[ CC libaio Debian/Ubuntu maintainer ]

Hi Jeff,

I am playing with fio (manually compiled v2.2.3) and wanted to update
also my libaio development package on Ubuntu/precise.

Both dsc (description) files of Debian and Ubuntu libaio source
packages v0.3.110 [1,2] point to a URL on <kernel.org> [3].
This space is empty.

Google told me about [4].

My question: Where does someone get official libaio tarballs?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

we can use syscall.h and aio_abi.h directly.

IMHO, I think libaio is of little value. It's just simple wrappers of
aio syscall and some useful macros. It will useful only when it
implement posix aio api, but this only on the roadmap.

Thanks for your feedback.

The background of my asking was that I wanted a higher version of
libaio-dev which is a prereq for fio on Ubuntu/precise for my tests
with loop-mq feature.

Cannot say if it is possible to build with syscall.h and aio_abi.h
directly (shipped with the Linux-kernel sources which might change
from release to release).

It's user space api, it's stable, will not changed.

Thanks for the URL.
More Thanks when you add some hashsums like md5sum and/or preferred sha256sum.

Hope the Debian/Ubuntu maintainers will change the "Homepage:" line accordingly.

Right, I'll put it on my todo list.  Sorry about that.

Please file a bug on the Debian BTS about it...

I'm not aware of any version later than the one in Debian. And git only
seems to contain a single commit over 0.3.110?

Right, if they are not coming back to kernel.org I should probably
change those URLs in the Debian package.

I get them (as mentioned in the debian/watch file) from
<http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/repo/pkgs/libaio/>.

Thanks,
