433Please note that C<aio_sendfile> can read more bytes from C<$in_fh> than

436bytes written to C<$out_fh>. Only if the result value equals C<$length>
437one can assume that C<$length> bytes have been read.
438
439Unlike with other C<aio_> functions, it makes a lot of sense to use
440C<aio_sendfile> on non-blocking sockets, as long as one end (typically
441the C<$in_fh>) is a file - the file I/O will then be asynchronous, while
442the socket I/O will be non-blocking. Note, however, that you can run into
443a trap where C<aio_sendfile> reads some data with readahead, then fails
444to write all data, and when the socket is ready the next time, the data
445in the cache is already lost, forcing C<aio_sendfile> to again hit the
446disk. Explicit C<aio_read> + C<aio_write> let's you control resource usage
447much better.

438bytes have been read from C<aio_sendfile> alone, as C<aio_sendfile> only

1141This is a rather advanced IO::AIO call, which works best on mmap(2)ed
1142scalars.
1143
1144It reads in all the pages of the underlying storage into memory (if any)
1145and locks them, so they are not getting swapped/paged out or removed.
1146
1147If C<$length> is undefined, then the scalar will be locked till the end.
1148
1149On systems that do not implement C<mlock>, this function returns C<-1>
1150and sets errno to C<ENOSYS>.
1151
1152Note that the corresponding C<munlock> is synchronous and is
1153documented under L<MISCELLANEOUS FUNCTIONS>.
1154
1155Example: open a file, mmap and mlock it - both will be undone when
1156C<$data> gets destroyed.

1624ENOSYS, otherwise the return value of C<posix_madvise>.
1625
1626=item IO::AIO::mprotect $scalar, $offset, $len, $protect
1627
1628Simply calls the C<mprotect> function on the preferably AIO::mmap'ed
1629$scalar (see its manpage for details). The following protect
1630constants are avaiable: C<IO::AIO::PROT_NONE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_READ>,
1631C<IO::AIO::PROT_WRITE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_EXEC>.
1632
1555On systems that do not implement C<mlockall>, this function returns 1633On systems that do not implement C<mprotect>, this function returns
1556ENOSYS, otherwise the return value of C<mlockall>. 1634ENOSYS, otherwise the return value of C<mprotect>.
1635
1636=item IO::AIO::mmap $scalar, $length, $prot, $flags, $fh[, $offset]
1637
1638Memory-maps a file (or anonymous memory range) and attaches it to the
1639given C<$scalar>, which will act like a string scalar.
1640
1641The only operations allowed on the scalar are C<substr>/C<vec> that don't
1642change the string length, and most read-only operations such as copying it
1643or searching it with regexes and so on.
1644
1645Anything else is unsafe and will, at best, result in memory leaks.
1646
1647The memory map associated with the C<$scalar> is automatically removed
1648when the C<$scalar> is destroyed, or when the C<IO::AIO::mmap> or
1649C<IO::AIO::munmap> functions are called.
1650
1651This calls the C<mmap>(2) function internally. See your system's manual
1652page for details on the C<$length>, C<$prot> and C<$flags> parameters.
1653
1654The C<$length> must be larger than zero and smaller than the actual
1655filesize.
1656
1657C<$prot> is a combination of C<IO::AIO::PROT_NONE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_EXEC>,
1658C<IO::AIO::PROT_READ> and/or C<IO::AIO::PROT_WRITE>,
1659
1660C<$flags> can be a combination of C<IO::AIO::MAP_SHARED> or
1661C<IO::AIO::MAP_PRIVATE>, or a number of system-specific flags (when
1662not available, the are defined as 0): C<IO::AIO::MAP_ANONYMOUS>
1663(which is set to C<MAP_ANON> if your system only provides this
1664constant), C<IO::AIO::MAP_HUGETLB>, C<IO::AIO::MAP_LOCKED>,
1665C<IO::AIO::MAP_NORESERVE>, C<IO::AIO::MAP_POPULATE> or
1666C<IO::AIO::MAP_NONBLOCK>
1667
1668If C<$fh> is C<undef>, then a file descriptor of C<-1> is passed.
1669
1670C<$offset> is the offset from the start of the file - it generally must be
1671a multiple of C<IO::AIO::PAGESIZE> and defaults to C<0>.
1672
1673Example:
1674
1675 use Digest::MD5;
1676 use IO::AIO;
1677
1678 open my $fh, "<verybigfile"
1679 or die "$!";
1680
1681 IO::AIO::mmap my $data, -s $fh, IO::AIO::PROT_READ, IO::AIO::MAP_SHARED, $fh
1682 or die "verybigfile: $!";
1683
1684 my $fast_md5 = md5 $data;
1685
1686=item IO::AIO::munmap $scalar
1687
1688Removes a previous mmap and undefines the C<$scalar>.
1689
1690=item IO::AIO::munlock $scalar, $offset = 0, $length = undef
1691
1692Calls the C<munlock> function, undoing the effects of a previous
1693C<aio_mlock> call (see its description for details).
1557 1694
1558=item IO::AIO::munlockall 1695=item IO::AIO::munlockall
1559 1696
1560Calls the C<munlockall> function. 1697Calls the C<munlockall> function.
