io_destroy - Destroy an asynchronous I/O contextSYNOPSIS
#include <linux/aio.h>

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.
