We do a sync to ssek to complete existing requests; I haven't looked to see whether that would need extending to flush aio as well, but don't think that would be the case. Given everyone else's silence, so far, you might be better to ask the author(s) of the aio code. (As I type Rafael's reply has arrived, but I think my answer might still be helpful, so I'll send it too). Regards, Nigel
