18 =head1 DESCRIPTION
19
20 This module is an L<AnyEvent> user, you need to make sure that you use and
21 run a supported event loop.
22
23 This module implements a thin wrapper around L<IO::AIO>. All of
24 the functions that expect a callback are being wrapped by this module.
25
26 The API is exactly the same as that of the corresponding IO::AIO routines,
27 except that you have to specify I<all> arguments I<except> the callback
28 argument. Instead the routines return the values normally passed to the
29 callback. Everything else, including C<$!> and perls stat cache, are set
30 as expected after these functions return.
31
32 You can mix calls to C<IO::AIO> functions with calls to this module. You
33 I<must not>, however, call these routines from within IO::AIO callbacks,
34 as this causes a deadlock. Start a coro inside the callback instead.
35
36 This module also loads L<AnyEvent::AIO> to integrate into the event loop
37 in use, so please refer to its (and L<AnyEvent>'s) documentation on how it
38 selects an appropriate event module.
39
40 All other functions exported by default by IO::AIO (e.g. C<aioreq_pri>)
41 will be exported by default by Coro::AIO, too.
42
43 Functions that can be optionally imported from IO::AIO can be imported
44 from Coro::AIO or can be called directly, e.g. C<Coro::AIO::nreqs>.
45
46 You cannot specify priorities with C<aioreq_pri> if your coroutine has a
47 non-zero priority, as this module overwrites the request priority with the
48 current coroutine priority in that case.
49
50 For your convenience, here are the changed function signatures for most
51 of the requests, for documentation of these functions please have a look
52 at L<IO::AIO|the IO::AIO manual>. Note that requests added by newer
53 versions of L<IO::AIO> will be automatically wrapped as well.

107 =item @results = aio_wait $req
108
109 This is not originally an IO::AIO request: what it does is to wait for
110 C<$req> to finish and return the results. This is most useful with
111 C<aio_group> requests.
112
113 Is currently implemented by replacing the C<$req> callback (and is very
114 much like a wrapper around C<< $req->cb () >>).

123
124 =item $retval = aio_sendfile $out_fh, $in_fh, $in_offset, $length
125
126 =item $retval = aio_readahead $fh,$offset,$length

140 =item $status = aio_fsync $fh
141
142 =item $status = aio_fdatasync $fh
143
144 =item ... = aio_xxx ...
145
146 Any additional aio requests follow the same scheme: same parameters except
147 you must not specify a callback but instead get the callback arguments as
148 return values.
