Hi! Looking carefully at the io_setup.2 man page it says: ... The io_setup() system call creates an asynchronous I/O context capable of concurrently processing at least nr_events. ... ^ The 'at least' caught my eye, as it is it may suggest that the nr_events is low limit on the number of events. Wouldn't be 'at most' more appropriate here? Quick look in the kernel sources suggest that it allocates buffers for nr_events elements. Or am I missing something? -- Cyril Hrubis chrubis@xxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-man" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
