NAME
       io_destroy - Destroy an asynchronous I/O context

SYNOPSIS
       #include <libaio.h>


       int io_destroy (io_context_t ctx);


DESCRIPTION
       io_destroy  removes  the asynchronous I/O context from the list of I/O
       contexts and then destroys it.  io_destroy can also  cancel  any	 out-
       standing asynchronous I/O actions on ctx and block on completion.


RETURN VALUE
       io_destroy returns 0 on success.


ERRORS
       EINVAL The AIO context specified by ctx is invalid.


       EFAULT The context pointed to is invalid.


       ENOSYS io_destroy is not implemented on this architecture.


CONFORMING TO
       io_destroy  is  Linux specific and should not be used in programs that
       are intended to be portable.


VERSIONS
       The asynchronous I/O system calls first appeared in Linux 2.5,  August
       2002.


SEE ALSO
       io_setup(2), io_submit(2), io_getevents(2), io_cancel(2).


NOTES
       The asynchronous I/O system calls were written by Benjamin LaHaise.
