nbd_aio_zero(3) | LIBNBD | nbd_aio_zero(3) |
NAME¶
nbd_aio_zero - send write zeroes command to the NBD server
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <libnbd.h> typedef struct { int (*callback) (void *user_data, int *error); void *user_data; void (*free) (void *user_data); } nbd_completion_callback; int64_t nbd_aio_zero ( struct nbd_handle *h, uint64_t count, uint64_t offset, nbd_completion_callback completion_callback, uint32_t flags );
DESCRIPTION¶
Issue a write zeroes command to the NBD server.
To check if the command completed, call nbd_aio_command_completed(3). Or supply the optional "completion_callback" which will be invoked as described in "Completion callbacks" in libnbd(3).
Other parameters behave as documented in nbd_zero(3).
By default, libnbd will reject attempts to use this function with parameters that are likely to result in server failure, such as requesting an unknown command flag. The nbd_set_strict_mode(3) function can be used to alter which scenarios should await a server reply rather than failing fast.
RETURN VALUE¶
This call returns the 64 bit cookie of the command. The cookie is ≥ 1. Cookies are unique (per libnbd handle, not globally).
ERRORS¶
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).
HANDLE STATE¶
nbd_aio_zero can be called when the handle is in the following state:
┌─────────────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────┐ │ Handle created, before connecting │ ❌ error │ │ Connecting │ ❌ error │ │ Connecting & handshaking (opt_mode) │ ❌ error │ │ Connected to the server │ ✅ allowed │ │ Connection shut down │ ❌ error │ │ Handle dead │ ❌ error │ └─────────────────────────────────────┴─────────────────────────┘
VERSION¶
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_ZERO 1
