AIO has been around forever and it gives a crappy way to do async i/o on disk files that are already open, but it doesn't give a way to asynchronously open a file. If you issue an open(2) call, your thread blocks until the open finishes, which can involve disk and network waits or whatever. To avoid the block, you have to put the open in another thread or process, or use io_uring, as far as I can tell. |
