IO_DESTROY(2)                       Linux Programmer's Manual                       IO_DESTROY(2)



NAME
       io_destroy - Destroy an asynchronous I/O context

SYNOPSIS
       #include <libaio.h>


       int io_destroy (io_context_t ctx);


DESCRIPTION
       io_destroy removes the asynchronous I/O context from the list of I/O contexts and then de-
       stroys 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.


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.


CONFORMING TO
       io_destroy  is  Linux  specific and should not be used in programs that are intended to be
       portable.


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


SEE ALSO
       io_setup(2), io_submit(2), io_getevents(2), io_cancel(2).


NOTES
       The asynchronous I/O system calls were written by Benjamin LaHaise.
