nbd_aio_in_flight - check how many aio commands are still in flight
#include <libnbd.h>
int nbd_aio_in_flight (
struct nbd_handle *h
);Return the number of in-flight aio commands that are still awaiting a response from the server before they can be retired. If this returns a non-zero value when requesting a disconnect from the server (see nbd_aio_disconnect(3) and nbd_shutdown(3)), libnbd does not try to wait for those commands to complete gracefully; if the server strands commands while shutting down, nbd_aio_command_completed(3) will report those commands as failed with a status of ENOTCONN.
This call returns an integer ≥ 0.
On error -1 is returned.
Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details of the error.
The following parameters must not be NULL: h. For more information see "Non-NULL parameters" in libnbd(3).
nbd_aio_in_flight can be called when the handle is in the following states:
┌─────────────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────┐
│ Handle created, before connecting │ ❌ error │
│ Connecting │ ❌ error │
│ Connecting & handshaking (opt_mode) │ ❌ error │
│ Connected to the server │ ✅ allowed │
│ Connection shut down │ ✅ allowed │
│ Handle dead │ ✅ allowed │
└─────────────────────────────────────┴─────────────────────────┘This function first appeared in libnbd 1.0.
If you need to test if this function is available at compile time check if the following macro is defined:
#define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_AIO_IN_FLIGHT 1This example is also available as examples/aio-connect-read.c in the libnbd source code.
/* This example shows how to use the AIO (asynchronous) low
* level API to connect to a server and read the disk.
*
* Here are a few ways to try this example:
*
* nbdkit -U - linuxdisk . \
* --run './aio-connect-read $unixsocket'
*
* nbdkit -U - floppy . \
* --run './aio-connect-read $unixsocket'
*
* nbdkit -U - pattern size=1M \
* --run './aio-connect-read $unixsocket'
