54	operating system supports.	57	operating system supports. It is implemented as an interface to C<libeio>
		58	(L<http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libeio.html>).
55		59
		60	Asynchronous means that operations that can normally block your program
		61	(e.g. reading from disk) will be done asynchronously: the operation
		62	will still block, but you can do something else in the meantime. This
		63	is extremely useful for programs that need to stay interactive even
		64	when doing heavy I/O (GUI programs, high performance network servers
		65	etc.), but can also be used to easily do operations in parallel that are
		66	normally done sequentially, e.g. stat'ing many files, which is much faster
		67	on a RAID volume or over NFS when you do a number of stat operations
		68	concurrently.
		69
		70	While most of this works on all types of file descriptors (for
		71	example sockets), using these functions on file descriptors that
		72	support nonblocking operation (again, sockets, pipes etc.) is
		73	very inefficient. Use an event loop for that (such as the L<EV>
		74	module): IO::AIO will naturally fit into such an event loop itself.
		75
56	Currently, a number of threads are started that execute your read/writes	76	In this version, a number of threads are started that execute your

		91	=head2 EXAMPLE
		92
		93	This is a simple example that uses the EV module and loads

		95
		96	use Fcntl;
		97	use EV;
		98	use IO::AIO;
		99
		100	# register the IO::AIO callback with EV
		101	my $aio_w = EV::io IO::AIO::poll_fileno, EV::READ, \&IO::AIO::poll_cb;
		102
		103	# queue the request to open /etc/passwd
		104	aio_open "/etc/passwd", O_RDONLY, 0, sub {
		105	my $fh = shift
		106	or die "error while opening: $!";
		107
		108	# stat'ing filehandles is generally non-blocking
		109	my $size = -s $fh;
		110
		111	# queue a request to read the file
		112	my $contents;
		113	aio_read $fh, 0, $size, $contents, 0, sub {
		114	$_[0] == $size
		115	or die "short read: $!";
		116
		117	close $fh;
		118
		119	# file contents now in $contents
		120	print $contents;
		121
		122	# exit event loop and program
		123	EV::unloop;
		124	};
		125	};
		126
		127	# possibly queue up other requests, or open GUI windows,
		128	# check for sockets etc. etc.
		129
		130	# process events as long as there are some:
		131	EV::loop;
		132
		133	=head1 REQUEST ANATOMY AND LIFETIME
		134
		135	Every C<aio_*> function creates a request. which is a C data structure not
		136	directly visible to Perl.
		137
		138	If called in non-void context, every request function returns a Perl
		139	object representing the request. In void context, nothing is returned,
		140	which saves a bit of memory.
		141
		142	The perl object is a fairly standard ref-to-hash object. The hash contents
		143	are not used by IO::AIO so you are free to store anything you like in it.
		144
		145	During their existance, aio requests travel through the following states,
		146	in order:
		147
		148	=over 4
		149
		150	=item ready
		151
		152	Immediately after a request is created it is put into the ready state,
		153	waiting for a thread to execute it.
		154
		155	=item execute
		156
		157	A thread has accepted the request for processing and is currently
		158	executing it (e.g. blocking in read).
		159
		160	=item pending
		161
		162	The request has been executed and is waiting for result processing.
		163
		164	While request submission and execution is fully asynchronous, result
		165	processing is not and relies on the perl interpreter calling C<poll_cb>
		166	(or another function with the same effect).
		167
		168	=item result
		169
		170	The request results are processed synchronously by C<poll_cb>.
		171
		172	The C<poll_cb> function will process all outstanding aio requests by
		173	calling their callbacks, freeing memory associated with them and managing
		174	any groups they are contained in.
		175
		176	=item done
		177
		178	Request has reached the end of its lifetime and holds no resources anymore
		179	(except possibly for the Perl object, but its connection to the actual
		180	aio request is severed and calling its methods will either do nothing or
		181	result in a runtime error).

		553

		555
		556	When this flag is off, then the callback gets an arrayref with of names

		558	C<[$name, $type, $inode]> arrayrefs, each describing a single directory
		559	entry in more detail.
		560
		561	C<$name> is the name of the entry.
		562
		563	C<$type> is one of the C<IO::AIO::DT_xxx> constants:

		567	C<IO::AIO::DT_WHT>.
		568
		569	C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN> means just that: readdir does not know. If you need to
		570	know, you have to run stat yourself. Also, for speed reasons, the C<$type>
		571	scalars are read-only: you can not modify them.
		572
		573	C<$inode> is the inode number (which might not be exact on systems with 64

		576

		578
		579	When this flag is set, then the names will be returned in an order where

		581	find directories, or you want to find all directories while avoiding to
		582	stat() each entry.
		583
		584	If the system returns type information in readdir, then this is used

		588
		589	=item IO::AIO::READDIR_STAT_ORDER
		590
		591	When this flag is set, then the names will be returned in an order
		592	suitable for stat()'ing each one. That is, when you plan to stat()
		593	all files in the given directory, then the returned order will likely
		594	be fastest.
		595
		596	If both this flag and C<IO::AIO::READDIR_DIRS_FIRST> are specified, then

		598
		599	=item IO::AIO::READDIR_FOUND_UNKNOWN

		601	This flag should not be set when calling C<aio_readdirx>. Instead, it
