AFAICS, rw, fsync and poll variants all have one, and I'm not sure what kind of async IO *could* be done without an opened file. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
