AIO_SUSPEND(3P)         POSIX Programmer's Manual         AIO_SUSPEND(3P)
       This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The
       Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
       corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
       the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
       aio_suspend — wait for an asynchronous I/O request
       #include <aio.h>
       int aio_suspend(const struct aiocb *const list[], int nent,
           const struct timespec *timeout);
       The aio_suspend() function shall suspend the calling thread until
       at least one of the asynchronous I/O operations referenced by the
       list argument has completed, until a signal interrupts the
       function, or, if timeout is not NULL, until the time interval
       specified by timeout has passed. If any of the aiocb structures in
       the list correspond to completed asynchronous I/O operations (that
       is, the error status for the operation is not equal to
       [EINPROGRESS]) at the time of the call, the function shall return
       without suspending the calling thread. The list argument is an
       array of pointers to asynchronous I/O control blocks.  The nent
       argument indicates the number of elements in the array. Each aiocb
       structure pointed to has been used in initiating an asynchronous
       I/O request via aio_read(), aio_write(), or lio_listio().  This
       array may contain null pointers, which are ignored. If this array
       contains pointers that refer to aiocb structures that have not
       been used in submitting asynchronous I/O, the effect is undefined.
       If the time interval indicated in the timespec structure pointed
       to by timeout passes before any of the I/O operations referenced
       by list are completed, then aio_suspend() shall return with an
       error.  If the Monotonic Clock option is supported, the clock that
       shall be used to measure this time interval shall be the
       CLOCK_MONOTONIC clock.
       If the aio_suspend() function returns after one or more
       asynchronous I/O operations have completed, the function shall
       return zero. Otherwise, the function shall return a value of -1
       and set errno to indicate the error.
       The application may determine which asynchronous I/O completed by
       scanning the associated error and return status using aio_error()
       and aio_return(), respectively.
       The aio_suspend() function shall fail if:
       EAGAIN No asynchronous I/O indicated in the list referenced by
              list completed in the time interval indicated by timeout.
       EINTR  A signal interrupted the aio_suspend() function. Note that,
              since each asynchronous I/O operation may possibly provoke
              a signal when it completes, this error return may be caused
              by the completion of one (or more) of the very I/O
              operations being awaited.
