aio: current status

aio: current status

[Eduardo Pérez]

What's the current status of linux-aio?

Is there any working example using linux-aio?

Is linux-aio going to support sockets?

Are there more linux sleeping (or blocking) API calls going to be ported to linux-aio?

Is there an official home page of linux-aio apart from the outdated:
http://www.kvack.org/~blah/aio/ ?

I've been testing AIO using Andrew's -mm kernels which includes
many AIO patches.  I've written some copy tests using AIO.

The libaio-0.3.93.tar ball has source to the library and man pages.
What kind of examples are you looking for?

I do not think AIO supports sockets, yet.  I would ask on the
linux-aio mailing list.

There was an interesting paper from the 2003 Linux Symposium on AIO:

We were planning to put together an AIO web page to make it 
easier to have an at-a-glance status and links to patches and
resources. Are your copy tests available somewhere ? It'd
be nice to have a link to it, so people can try it out.
