434As a GNU/Linux (and maybe Solaris) extension, also the constants
435C<IO::AIO::SEEK_DATA> and C<IO::AIO::SEEK_HOLE> are available, if they
436could be found. No guarantees about suitability for use in C<aio_seek> or
437Perl's C<sysseek> can be made though, although I would naively assume they
438"just work".

647Allocates or freed disk space according to the C<$mode> argument. See the
648linux C<fallocate> docuemntation for details.
649
650C<$mode> can currently be C<0> or C<IO::AIO::FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE>

652IO::AIO::FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE>, to deallocate a file range.
653
654The file system block size used by C<fallocate> is presumably the
655C<f_bsize> returned by C<statvfs>.

657If C<fallocate> isn't available or cannot be emulated (currently no
658emulation will be attempted), passes C<-1> and sets C<$!> to C<ENOSYS>.

1280=item aio_fiemap $fh, $start, $length, $flags, $count, $cb->(\@extents)
1281
1282Queries the extents of the given file (by calling the Linux FIEMAP ioctl,
1283see L<http://cvs.schmorp.de/IO-AIO/doc/fiemap.txt> for details). If the
1284C<ioctl> is not available on your OS, then this request will fail with
1285C<ENOSYS>.
1286
1287C<$start> is the starting offset to query extents for, C<$length> is the
1288size of the range to query - if it is C<undef>, then the whole file will
1289be queried.
1290
1291C<$flags> is a combination of flags (C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC> or
1292C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_FLAG_XATTR> - C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_FLAGS_COMPAT> is also
1293exported), and is normally C<0> or C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC> to query
1294the data portion.
1295
1296C<$count> is the maximum number of extent records to return. If it is
1297C<undef>, then IO::AIO queries all extents of the range. As a very special
1298case, if it is C<0>, then the callback receives the number of extents
1299instead of the extents themselves (which is unreliable, see below).
1300
1301If an error occurs, the callback receives no arguments. The special
1302C<errno> value C<IO::AIO::EBADR> is available to test for flag errors.
1303
1304Otherwise, the callback receives an array reference with extent
1305structures. Each extent structure is an array reference itself, with the
1306following members:
1307
1308 [$logical, $physical, $length, $flags]
1309
1310Flags is any combination of the following flag values (typically either C<0>
1311or C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST> (1)):
1312
1313C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST>, C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_UNKNOWN>,
1314C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_DELALLOC>, C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_ENCODED>,
1315C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_DATA_ENCRYPTED>, C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_NOT_ALIGNED>,
1316C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_DATA_INLINE>, C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_DATA_TAIL>,
1317C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_UNWRITTEN>, C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_MERGED> or
1318C<IO::AIO::FIEMAP_EXTENT_SHARED>.
1319
1320At the time of this writing (Linux 3.2), this requets is unreliable unless
1321C<$count> is C<undef>, as the kernel has all sorts of bugs preventing
1322it to return all extents of a range for files with large number of
1323extents. The code works around all these issues if C<$count> is undef.

2000=item IO::AIO::splice $r_fh, $r_off, $w_fh, $w_off, $length, $flags
2001
2002Calls the GNU/Linux C<splice(2)> syscall, if available. If C<$r_off> or
2003C<$w_off> are C<undef>, then C<NULL> is passed for these, otherwise they
2004should be the file offset.
2005
2006C<$r_fh> and C<$w_fh> should not refer to the same file, as splice might
2007silently corrupt the data in this case.

2009The following symbol flag values are available: C<IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_MOVE>,
2010C<IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK>, C<IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_MORE> and
2011C<IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_GIFT>.
