The function call shall return when +the read request has been initiated or queued to the file or device +(even when the data cannot be delivered immediately). +.P +If prioritized I/O is supported for this file, then the asynchronous +operation shall be submitted at a priority equal to a base scheduling +priority minus \fIaiocbp\fP\->\fIaio_reqprio\fR. If Thread Execution +Scheduling is not supported, then the base scheduling priority is that +of the calling process; +.br +otherwise, the base scheduling priority is that of the calling thread. +.P +The +.IR aiocbp +value may be used as an argument to +\fIaio_error\fR() +and +\fIaio_return\fR() +in order to determine the error status and return status, respectively, +of the asynchronous operation while it is proceeding. If an error +condition is encountered during queuing, the function call shall return +without having initiated or queued the request. The requested +operation takes place at the absolute position in the file as given by +.IR aio_offset , +as if +\fIlseek\fR() +were called immediately prior to the operation with an +.IR offset +equal to +.IR aio_offset +and a +.IR whence +equal to SEEK_SET. +After a successful call to enqueue an asynchronous I/O operation, the +value of the file offset for the file is unspecified. +.P +The +.IR aio_sigevent +member specifies the notification which occurs when the request is +completed. +.P +The \fIaiocbp\fP\->\fIaio_lio_opcode\fR field shall be ignored by +\fIaio_read\fR(). +.P +The +.IR aiocbp +argument points to an +.BR aiocb +structure. If the buffer pointed to by \fIaiocbp\fP\->\fIaio_buf\fR or +the control block pointed to by +.IR aiocbp +becomes an illegal address prior to asynchronous I/O completion, then +the behavior is undefined. +.P +Simultaneous asynchronous operations using the same +.IR aiocbp +produce undefined results. +.P +If synchronized I/O is enabled on the file associated with +\fIaiocbp\fP\->\fIaio_fildes\fR, the behavior of this function shall +be according to the definitions of synchronized I/O data integrity +completion and synchronized I/O file integrity completion. +.P +For any system action that changes the process memory space while an +asynchronous I/O is outstanding to the address range being changed, the +result of that action is undefined. +.P +For regular files, no data transfer shall occur past the offset maximum +established in the open file description associated with +\fIaiocbp\fP\->\fIaio_fildes\fR. +.SH "RETURN VALUE" +The +\fIaio_read\fR() +function shall return the value zero if the I/O operation is +successfully queued; otherwise, the function shall return the value +\-1 and set +.IR errno +to indicate the error. +.SH ERRORS +The +\fIaio_read\fR() +function shall fail if: +.TP +.BR EAGAIN +The requested asynchronous I/O operation was not queued due to system +resource limitations. +.P +Each of the following conditions may be detected synchronously at the +time of the call to +\fIaio_read\fR(), +or asynchronously. If any of the conditions below are detected +synchronously, the +\fIaio_read\fR() +function shall return \-1 and set +.IR errno +to the corresponding value. If any of the conditions below are +detected asynchronously, the return status of the asynchronous +operation is set to \-1, and the error status of the asynchronous +operation is set to the corresponding value. +.TP +.BR EBADF +The \fIaiocbp\fP\->\fIaio_fildes\fP argument is not a valid file +descriptor open for reading. +.TP +.BR EINVAL +The file offset value implied by \fIaiocbp\fP\->\fIaio_offset\fR would +be invalid, +.br +\fIaiocbp\fP\->\fIaio_reqprio\fR is not a valid value, +or \fIaiocbp\fP\->\fIaio_nbytes\fR is an invalid value. +.P +In the case that the +\fIaio_read\fR() +successfully queues the I/O operation but the operation is subsequently +canceled or encounters an error, the return status of the asynchronous +operation is one of the values normally returned by the +\fIread\fR() +function call.
