DESCRIPTION

io_destroy() removes the asynchronous I/O context from the list of I/O contexts and then destroys it. io_destroy() can also cancel any outstanding asynchronous I/O actions on ctx and block on completion.

RETURN VALUE

io_destroy() returns 0 on success; on failure, it returns one of the errors listed under ERRORS.

ERRORS

EINVAL

The AIO context specified by ctx is invalid.

EFAULT

The context pointed to is invalid.

ENOSYS

io_destroy() is not implemented on this architecture.

VERSIONS

The asynchronous I/O system calls first appeared in Linux 2.5, August 2002.

CONFORMING TO

io_destroy() is Linux-specific and should not be used in programs that are intended to be portable.
