1704 ($rfh, $wfh) = IO::AIO::pipe2 [$flags]
1705 This is a direct interface to the Linux pipe2(2) system call. If
1706 $flags is missing or 0, then this should be the same as a call to
1707 perl's built-in "pipe" function and create a new pipe, and works on
1708 systems that lack the pipe2 syscall. On win32, this case invokes
1709 "_pipe (..., 4096, O_BINARY)".
1710
1711 If $flags is non-zero, it tries to invoke the pipe2 system call with
1712 the given flags (Linux 2.6.27, glibc 2.9).
1713
1714 On success, the read and write file handles are returned.
1715
1716 On error, nothing will be returned. If the pipe2 syscall is missing
1717 and $flags is non-zero, fails with "ENOSYS".
1718
1719 Please refer to pipe2(2) for more info on the $flags, but at the
1720 time of this writing, "IO::AIO::O_CLOEXEC", "IO::AIO::O_NONBLOCK"
1721 and "IO::AIO::O_DIRECT" (Linux 3.4, for packet-based pipes) were
1722 supported.
