1649 | IO::AIO::splice $r_fh, $r_off, $w_fh, $w_off, $length, $flags |
|
|
1650 | Calls the GNU/Linux splice(2) syscall, if available. If $r_off or |
|
|
1651 | $w_off are "undef", then "NULL" is passed for these, otherwise they |
|
|
1652 | should be the file offset. |
|
|
1653 | |
|
|
1654 | $r_fh and $w_fh should not refer to the same file, as splice might |
|
|
1655 | silently corrupt the data in this case. |

|
1657 | The following symbol flag values are available: |

1658 | "IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_MOVE", "IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK", |
|
|
1659 | "IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_MORE" and "IO::AIO::SPLICE_F_GIFT". |
