/****************************************************************************
* Name: aio_read
*
* Description:
* The aio_read() function reads aiocbp->aio_nbytes from the file
* associated with aiocbp->aio_fildes into the buffer pointed to by
* aiocbp->aio_buf. The function call will return when the read request
* has been initiated or queued to the file or device (even when the data
* cannot be delivered immediately).
*
* The aiocbp value may be used as an argument to aio_error() and
* aio_return() 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
* will return without having initiated or queued the request. The
* requested operation takes place at the absolute position in the file as
* given by aio_offset, as if lseek() were called immediately prior to the
* operation with an offset equal to aio_offset and a 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.
*
* The aiocbp->aio_lio_opcode field will be ignored by aio_read().
*
* The aiocbp argument points to an aiocb structure. If the buffer pointed
* to by aiocbp->aio_buf or the control block pointed to by aiocbp becomes
* an illegal address prior to asynchronous I/O completion, then the
* behavior is undefined.
*
* Simultaneous asynchronous operations using the same aiocbp produce
* undefined results.
*
* For any system action that changes the process memory space while an
* synchronous I/O is outstanding to the address range being changed, the
* result of that action is undefined.
*
* Input Parameters:
* aiocbp - A pointer to an instance of struct aiocb
*
* Returned Value:
*
* The aio_read() function will return the value zero if the I/O operation
* is successfully queued; otherwise, the function will return the value
* -1 and set errno to indicate the error. The aio_read() function will
* ail if:
*
* EAGAIN - The requested asynchronous I/O operation was not queued due to
* system resource limitations.
*
* Each of the following conditions may be detected synchronously at the
* time of the call to aio_read(), or asynchronously. If any of the
* conditions below are detected synchronously, the aio_read() function
* will return -1 and set 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.
*
* EBADF - The aiocbp->aio_fildes argument is not a valid file descriptor
* open for reading.
* EINVAL - The file offset value implied by aiocbp->aio_offset would be
* invalid, aiocbp->aio_reqprio is not a valid value, or
* aiocbp->aio_nbytes is an invalid value.
*
* In the case that the aio_read() successfully queues the I/O operation
* but the operation is subsequently cancelled or encounters an error, the
* return status of the asynchronous operation is one of the values
* normally returned by the read() function call. In addition, the error
* status of the asynchronous operation is set to one of the error
* statuses normally set by the read() function call, or one of the
* following values:
*
* EBADF - The aiocbp->aio_fildes argument is not a valid file descriptor
* open for reading.
* ECANCELED - The requested I/O was cancelled before the I/O completed
* due to an explicit aio_cancel() request.
* EINVAL - The file offset value implied by aiocbp->aio_offset would be
* invalid.
*
* The following condition may be detected synchronously or asynchronously:
*
* EOVERFLOW - The file is a regular file, aiobcp->aio_nbytes is greater
* than 0, and the starting offset in aiobcp->aio_offset is before the
* end-of-file and is at or beyond the offset maximum in the open file
* description associated with aiocbp->aio_fildes.
*
* POSIX Compliance:
* - The POSIX specification of asynchronous I/O implies that a thread is
* created for each I/O operation. The standard requires that if
* prioritized I/O is supported for this file, then the asynchronous
* operation will be submitted at a priority equal to a base scheduling
* priority minus aiocbp->aio_reqprio. If Thread Execution Scheduling is
* not supported, then the base scheduling priority is that of the calling
* thread.
*
* My initial gut feeling is the creating a new thread on each asynchronous
* I/O operation would not be a good use of resources in a deeply embedded
* system. So I decided to execute all asynchronous I/O on a low-priority
* or user-space worker thread. There are two negative consequences of this
* decision that need to be revisited:
*
* 1) The worker thread runs at a fixed priority making it impossible to
* meet the POSIX requirement for asynchronous I/O. That standard
* specifically requires varying priority.
* 2) On the worker thread, each I/O will still be performed synchronously,
* one at a time. This is not a violation of the POSIX requirement,
* but one would think there could be opportunities for concurrent I/O.
*
* In reality, in a small embedded system, there will probably only be one
* real file system and, in this case, the I/O will be performed sequentially
* anyway. Most simple embedded hardware will not support any concurrent
* accesses.
*
* - Most errors required in the standard are not detected at this point.
* There are no pre-queuing checks for the validity of the operation.
