Hello, as I cannot find any existing drivers using aio_read()/write(), and the interface has changed since LDD3 now supporting vectored I/O, where can I get more information on it? Some questions I came up with: For a multi vector I/O, can aio_read() still return the number of bytes? Must it do so for synchronous I/O (either requested or possible) only, or is returning the queued amount of I/O bytes also valid? Or, must it still return -EIOCBQUEUED if everything was queued? For multi-segment vectored IO, what must aio_complete return in res2? The total of bytes across all completed I/O vectors? And what if the I/O fails half-way the segments? LDD3 says the first result of aio_complete() is the "usual result status" for the operation. I'm not sure what that is for multi-vectored I/O; I guess the total amount of bytes transferred?
