2034=head3 SUBSECOND STAT TIME ACCESS
2035
2036Both C<aio_stat>/C<aio_lstat> and perl's C<stat>/C<lstat> functions can
2037generally find access/modification and change times with subsecond time
2038accuracy of the system supports it, but perl's built-in functions only
2039return the integer part.
2040
2041The following functions return the timestamps of the most recent
2042stat with subsecond precision on most systems and work both after
2043C<aio_stat>/C<aio_lstat> and perl's C<stat>/C<lstat> calls. Their return
2044value is only meaningful after a successful C<stat>/C<lstat> call, or
2045during/after a successful C<aio_stat>/C<aio_lstat> callback.
2046
2047This is similar to the L<Time::HiRes> C<stat> functions, but can return
2048full resolution without rounding and work with standard perl C<stat>,
2049alleviating the need to call the special C<Time::HiRes> functions, which
2050do not act like their perl counterparts.
2051
2052On operating systems or file systems where subsecond time resolution is
2053not supported or could not be detected, a fractional part of C<0> is
2054returned, so it is always safe to call these functions.
2055
2056=over 4
2057
2058=item $seconds = IO::AIO::st_atime, IO::AIO::st_mtime, IO::AIO::st_ctime, IO::AIO::st_btime
2059
2060Return the access, modication, change or birth time, respectively,
2061including fractional part. Due to the limited precision of floating point,
2062the accuracy on most platforms is only a bit better than milliseconds
2063for times around now - see the I<nsec> function family, below, for full
2064accuracy.
2065
2066File birth time is only available when the OS and perl support it (on
2067FreeBSD and NetBSD at the time of this writing, although support is
2068adaptive, so if your OS/perl gains support, IO::AIO can take avdantage of
2069it). On systems where it isn't available, C<0> is currently returned, but
2070this might change to C<undef> in a future version.
2071
2072=item ($atime, $mtime, $ctime, $btime, ...) = IO::AIO::st_xtime
2073
2074Returns access, modification, change and birth time all in one go, and
2075maybe more times in the future version.
2076
2077=item $nanoseconds = IO::AIO::st_atimensec, IO::AIO::st_mtimensec, IO::AIO::st_ctimensec, IO::AIO::st_btimensec
2078
2079Return the fractional access, modifcation, change or birth time, in nanoseconds,
2080as an integer in the range C<0> to C<999999999>.
2081
2082Note that no accessors are provided for access, modification and
2083change times - you need to get those from C<stat _> if required (C<int
2084IO::AIO::st_atime> and so on will I<not> generally give you the correct
2085value).
2086
2087=item $seconds = IO::AIO::st_btimesec
2088
2089The (integral) seconds part of the file birth time, if available.
2090
2091=item ($atime, $mtime, $ctime, $btime, ...) = IO::AIO::st_xtimensec
2092
2093Like the functions above, but returns all four times in one go (and maybe
2094more in future versions).
2095
2096=item $counter = IO::AIO::st_gen
2097
2098Returns the generation counter (in practice this is just a random number)
2099of the file. This is only available on platforms which have this member in
2100their C<struct stat> (most BSDs at the time of this writing) and generally
2101only to the root usert. If unsupported, C<0> is returned, but this might
2102change to C<undef> in a future version.

2552Calls that try to "import" foreign memory areas (such as C<IO::AIO::mmap>
2553or C<IO::AIO::aio_slurp>) do not work with generic lvalues, such as
2554non-created hash slots or other scalars I didn't think of. It's best to
2555avoid such and either use scalar variables or making sure that the scalar
2556exists (e.g. by storing C<undef>) and isn't "funny" (e.g. tied).

2558I am not sure anything can be done about this, so this is considered a
2559known issue, rather than a bug.
