5     =head1 SYNOPSIS
6    
7     use Coro::AIO;
8    
9     # can now use any of:
10     # aio_sendfile aio_read aio_write aio_open aio_close
11     # aio_unlink aio_rmdir aio_readdir aio_scandir aio_symlink aio_fsync
12     # aio_fdatasync aio_readahead
13    
14     # read 1MB of /etc/passwd, without blocking other coroutines
15     my $fh = aio_open "/etc/passwd", O_RDONLY, 0
16     or die "/etc/passwd: $!";
17     aio_read $fh, 0, 1_000_000, my $buf, 0
18     or die "aio_read: $!";
19     aio_close $fh;

21     =head1 DESCRIPTION
22    
23     This module implements a thin wrapper around L<IO::AIO|IO::AIO>. All of
24     the functions (except C<aio_lstat> and C<aio_stat>) that expect a callback
25     are being wrapped by this module.
26    
27     The API is exactly the same as that of the corresponding IO::AIO routines,
28     except that you have to specify I<all> arguments I<except> the callback
29     argument. Instead the routines return the values normally passed to the
30     callback. They also all have a prototype of C<@> currently, but that might
31     change.
32    
33     You can mix calls to C<IO::AIO> functions with calls to this module. You
34     also can, but do not need to, call C<IO::AIO::poll_cb>, as this module
35     automatically installs an event watcher for the C<IO::AIO> file
36     descriptor. It uses the L<AnyEvent|AnyEvent> module for this, so please
37     refer to its documentation on how it selects an appropriate Event module.
38    
39     For your convienience, here are the changed function signatures, for
40     documentation of these functions please have a look at L<IO::AIO|the
41     IO::AIO manual>.
