 On systems that support the AIO::WD working directory abstraction
 natively, the case C<[$wd, "."]> as C<$srcpath> is specialcased - instead
 of failing, C<rename> is called on the absolute path of C<$wd>.
+=item aio_rename2 $srcpath, $dstpath, $flags, $callback->($status)
+Basically a version of C<aio_rename> with an additional C<$flags>
+argument. Calling this with C<$flags=0> is the same as calling
+C<aio_rename>.
+Non-zero flags are currently only supported on GNU/Linux systems that

 Asynchronously mkdir (create) a directory and call the callback with
 =item aio_copy $srcpath, $dstpath, $callback->($status)
 Try to copy the I<file> (directories not supported as either source or
 destination) from C<$srcpath> to C<$dstpath> and call the callback with
 a status of C<0> (ok) or C<-1> (error, see C<$!>).
+Existing destination files will be truncated.
 This is a composite request that creates the destination file with
 mode 0200 and copies the contents of the source file into it using
 C<aio_sendfile>, followed by restoring atime, mtime, access mode and
 uid/gid, in that order.
 Scans a directory (similar to C<aio_readdir>) but additionally tries to
 efficiently separate the entries of directory C<$path> into two sets of
 names, directories you can recurse into (directories), and ones you cannot
 recurse into (everything else, including symlinks to directories).

 you still can.

 This is a rather advanced IO::AIO call, which only works on mmap(2)ed
 scalars (see the C<IO::AIO::mmap> function, although it also works on data
 scalars managed by the L<Sys::Mmap> or L<Mmap> modules, note that the
 scalar must only be modified in-place while an aio operation is pending on
 It calls the C<msync> function of your OS, if available, with the memory
 area starting at C<$offset> in the string and ending C<$length> bytes
 later. If C<$length> is negative, counts from the end, and if C<$length>
 is C<undef>, then it goes till the end of the string. The flags can be

 =item aio_group $callback->(...)
 This is a very special aio request: Instead of doing something, it is a
 container for other aio requests, which is useful if you want to bundle
 There are some caveats: when directories get renamed (or deleted), the
 pathname string doesn't change, so will point to the new directory (or
 nowhere at all), while the directory fd, if available on the system,
 will still point to the original directory. Most functions accepting a
 pathname will use the directory fd on newer systems, and the string on
-older systems. Some functions (such as realpath) will always rely on the
+older systems. Some functions (such as C<aio_realpath>) will always rely on
-string form of the pathname.
+the string form of the pathname.
 So this functionality is mainly useful to get some protection against
 C<chdir>, to easily get an absolute path out of a relative path for future
 reference, and to speed up doing many operations in the same directory
 (e.g. when stat'ing all files in a directory).
 This is a very bad function to use in interactive programs because it
 blocks, and a bad way to reduce concurrency because it is inexact: Better
 use an C<aio_group> together with a feed callback.
 Its main use is in scripts without an event loop - when you want to stat

 some "Advanced I/O" function not available to in Perl, without going the

 counterpart.

+This function is I<EXPERIMENTAL> and subject to change.

+This function is I<EXPERIMENTAL> and subject to change.
+Try to increase the current file descriptor limit(s) to at least C<$numfd>
+by changing the soft or hard file descriptor resource limit. If C<$numfd>
+is missing, it will try to set a very high limit, although this is not
+recommended when you know the actual minimum that you require.
+If the limit cannot be raised enough, the function makes a best-effort
+attempt to increase the limit as much as possible, using various
+tricks, while still failing. You can query the resulting limit using
+C<IO::AIO::get_fdlimit>.

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

 but is blocking (this makes most sense if you know the input data is
 =item IO::AIO::madvise $scalar, $offset, $len, $advice
 Simply calls the C<posix_madvise> function (see its
 manpage for details). The following advice constants are
 available: C<IO::AIO::MADV_NORMAL>, C<IO::AIO::MADV_SEQUENTIAL>,

 On systems that do not implement C<posix_madvise>, this function returns
 ENOSYS, otherwise the return value of C<posix_madvise>.
 =item IO::AIO::mprotect $scalar, $offset, $len, $protect
 Simply calls the C<mprotect> function on the preferably AIO::mmap'ed
 $scalar (see its manpage for details). The following protect
 constants are available: C<IO::AIO::PROT_NONE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_READ>,
 C<IO::AIO::PROT_WRITE>, C<IO::AIO::PROT_EXEC>.

 =item IO::AIO::mmap $scalar, $length, $prot, $flags, $fh[, $offset]
 Memory-maps a file (or anonymous memory range) and attaches it to the
 given C<$scalar>, which will act like a string scalar. Returns true on
 success, and false otherwise.
