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

		440	Unlike with other C<aio_> functions, it makes a lot of sense to use

		445	to write all data, and when the socket is ready the next time, the data
		446	in the cache is already lost, forcing C<aio_sendfile> to again hit the
		447	disk. Explicit C<aio_read> + C<aio_write> let's you control resource usage

		669	=over 4
		670
		671	=item IO::AIO::READDIR_DENTS
		672
		673	When this flag is off, then the callback gets an arrayref with of names
		674	only (as with C<aio_readdir>), otherwise it gets an arrayref with
		675	C<[$name, $type, $inode]> arrayrefs, each describing a single directory
		676	entry in more detail.
		677
		678	C<$name> is the name of the entry.
		679
		680	C<$type> is one of the C<IO::AIO::DT_xxx> constants:
		681
		682	C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN>, C<IO::AIO::DT_FIFO>, C<IO::AIO::DT_CHR>, C<IO::AIO::DT_DIR>,
		683	C<IO::AIO::DT_BLK>, C<IO::AIO::DT_REG>, C<IO::AIO::DT_LNK>, C<IO::AIO::DT_SOCK>,
		684	C<IO::AIO::DT_WHT>.
		685
		686	C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN> means just that: readdir does not know. If you need to
		687	know, you have to run stat yourself. Also, for speed reasons, the C<$type>
		688	scalars are read-only: you can not modify them.
		689
		690	C<$inode> is the inode number (which might not be exact on systems with 64
		691	bit inode numbers and 32 bit perls). This field has unspecified content on
		692	systems that do not deliver the inode information.
		693
		694	=item IO::AIO::READDIR_DIRS_FIRST
		695
		696	When this flag is set, then the names will be returned in an order where
		697	likely directories come first. This is useful when you need to quickly
		698	find directories, or you want to find all directories while avoiding to
		699	stat() each entry.
		700
		701	If the system returns type information in readdir, then this is used
		702	to find directories directly. Otherwise, likely directories are files
		703	beginning with ".", or otherwise files with no dots, of which files with
		704	short names are tried first.
		705
		706	=item IO::AIO::READDIR_STAT_ORDER
		707
		708	When this flag is set, then the names will be returned in an order
		709	suitable for stat()'ing each one. That is, when you plan to stat()
		710	all files in the given directory, then the returned order will likely
		711	be fastest.
		712
		713	If both this flag and C<IO::AIO::READDIR_DIRS_FIRST> are specified, then
		714	the likely dirs come first, resulting in a less optimal stat order.
		715
		716	=item IO::AIO::READDIR_FOUND_UNKNOWN
		717
		718	This flag should not be set when calling C<aio_readdirx>. Instead, it
		719	is being set by C<aio_readdirx>, when any of the C<$type>'s found were
		720	C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN>. The absense of this flag therefore indicates that all
		721	C<$type>'s are known, which can be used to speed up some algorithms.

		1602
		1603	=item IO::AIO::sendfile $ofh, $ifh, $offset, $count
		1604

		1606	but is blocking (this makes most sense if you know the input data is

		1611
		1612	=item IO::AIO::fadvise $fh, $offset, $len, $advice
		1613
		1614	Simply calls the C<posix_fadvise> function (see its
		1615	manpage for details). The following advice constants are
		1616	avaiable: C<IO::AIO::FADV_NORMAL>, C<IO::AIO::FADV_SEQUENTIAL>,
		1617	C<IO::AIO::FADV_RANDOM>, C<IO::AIO::FADV_NOREUSE>,
		1618	C<IO::AIO::FADV_WILLNEED>, C<IO::AIO::FADV_DONTNEED>.
		1619
		1620	On systems that do not implement C<posix_fadvise>, this function returns

		1622
		1623	=item IO::AIO::madvise $scalar, $offset, $len, $advice
		1624
		1625	Simply calls the C<posix_madvise> function (see its

		1629
		1630	On systems that do not implement C<posix_madvise>, this function returns
		1631	ENOSYS, otherwise the return value of C<posix_madvise>.
		1632
		1633	=item IO::AIO::mprotect $scalar, $offset, $len, $protect
		1634
		1635	Simply calls the C<mprotect> function on the preferably AIO::mmap'ed
		1636	$scalar (see its manpage for details). The following protect
		1637	constants are avaiable: C<IO::AIO::PROT_NONE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_READ>,
		1638	C<IO::AIO::PROT_WRITE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_EXEC>.
		1639
		1640	On systems that do not implement C<mprotect>, this function returns

		1642
		1643	=item IO::AIO::mmap $scalar, $length, $prot, $flags, $fh[, $offset]
		1644
		1645	Memory-maps a file (or anonymous memory range) and attaches it to the
		1646	given C<$scalar>, which will act like a string scalar.
		1647
		1648	The only operations allowed on the scalar are C<substr>/C<vec> that don't
		1649	change the string length, and most read-only operations such as copying it
		1650	or searching it with regexes and so on.
		1651
		1652	Anything else is unsafe and will, at best, result in memory leaks.
		1653
		1654	The memory map associated with the C<$scalar> is automatically removed
		1655	when the C<$scalar> is destroyed, or when the C<IO::AIO::mmap> or
		1656	C<IO::AIO::munmap> functions are called.
		1657
		1658	This calls the C<mmap>(2) function internally. See your system's manual
		1659	page for details on the C<$length>, C<$prot> and C<$flags> parameters.
		1660
		1661	The C<$length> must be larger than zero and smaller than the actual
		1662	filesize.
		1663
		1664	C<$prot> is a combination of C<IO::AIO::PROT_NONE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_EXEC>,
		1665	C<IO::AIO::PROT_READ> and/or C<IO::AIO::PROT_WRITE>,
		1666
		1667	C<$flags> can be a combination of C<IO::AIO::MAP_SHARED> or
		1668	C<IO::AIO::MAP_PRIVATE>, or a number of system-specific flags (when
		1669	not available, the are defined as 0): C<IO::AIO::MAP_ANONYMOUS>
		1670	(which is set to C<MAP_ANON> if your system only provides this
		1671	constant), C<IO::AIO::MAP_HUGETLB>, C<IO::AIO::MAP_LOCKED>,
		1672	C<IO::AIO::MAP_NORESERVE>, C<IO::AIO::MAP_POPULATE> or
		1673	C<IO::AIO::MAP_NONBLOCK>
		1674
		1675	If C<$fh> is C<undef>, then a file descriptor of C<-1> is passed.
		1676
		1677	C<$offset> is the offset from the start of the file - it generally must be
		1678	a multiple of C<IO::AIO::PAGESIZE> and defaults to C<0>.
		1679
		1680	Example:

		1696

		1698
		1699	Calls the C<munlock> function, undoing the effects of a previous
