tokio-linux-aio

This package provides an integration of Linux kernel-level asynchronous I/O to the Tokio platform.

Linux kernel-level asynchronous I/O is different from the Posix AIO library. Posix AIO is implemented using a pool of userland threads, which invoke regular, blocking system calls to perform file I/O. Linux kernel-level AIO, on the other hand, provides kernel-level asynchronous scheduling of I/O operations to the underlying block device.

Note: Implementation and test development is still in progress.

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
tokio-linux-aio = "0.1"

Next, add this to the root module of your crate:

extern crate tokio_linux_aio;
