NAME         top

       io_uring_prep_futex_waitv - prepare a futex waitv request

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <linux/futex.h>
       #include <unistd.h>
       #include <liburing.h>

       void io_uring_prep_futex_wait(struct io_uring_sqe *sqe,
                                     struct futex_waitv *futexv,
                                     uint32_t nr_futex,
                                     unsigned int flags);

DESCRIPTION         top

       The io_uring_prep_futex_waitv(3) function prepares a futex wait
       request for multiple futexes at the same time.  The submission
       queue entry sqe is setup for waiting on all futexes given by
       futexv and nr_futex is the number of futexes in that array.
       flags must be set to the io_uring specific futex flags.

       Unlike io_uring_prep_futex(3), the desired bitset mask and values
       are passed in futexv .

       flags are currently unused and hence 0 must be passed.

       This function prepares an async futex(2) waitv request. See that
       man page for details.

RETURN VALUE         top

       None

ERRORS         top

       The CQE res field will contain the result of the operation. See
       the related man page for details on possible values. Note that
       where synchronous system calls will return -1 on failure and set
       errno to the actual error value, io_uring never uses errno.
       Instead it returns the negated errno directly in the CQE res
       field.

NOTES         top

       Unlike the sync futex syscalls that wait on a futex, io_uring
       does not support passing in a timeout for the request. Instead,
       applications are encouraged to use a linked timeout to abort the
       futex request at a given time, if desired.
