| [PATCH 0/5] Add kernel AIO support for POSIX AIO |
| Date: |
| Thu, 28 Jul 2005 17:46:28 +0200 |
This set of patches adds functionality to the kernel AIO
infrastructure to be used by user level libraries aiming at implementing
a POSIX compliant API on top of this kernel support.
This patchset is comprised of 5 patches, each implementing a specific
functionality:
- aiomaxevents: adds a sysctl variable for setting the default
AIO context event ring size at runtime. This tunable is
accessible via /proc/sys/fs/posix-aio-default-max-nr.
- aioevent: adds support for request completion notification.
- lioevent: adds support for list of requests completion
notification.
- liowait: adds support for the POSIX listio LIO_WAIT mechanism.
- cancelfd: adds support for cancellation against a file
descriptor.
These patches apply cleanly on a vanilla 2.6.12 kernel tree and should
be applied in the order shown before.
