Aio: 'Resource Temporarily unavailable'

Subject: Aio: 'Resource Temporarily unavailable'

Hi all,

browsing the aio_suspend code, i have found out that if a timeout is specified to aio_suspend, and if the operation does not finish within the specified time, then ETIMEDOUT is returned which is returned as a 'Resource Temporarily unavailable' error to the user program.

My question is, if such an error is encountered then is it a valid error( i.e, is it a common occurance ? ) OR is it something which should never happen but has happened and something in glibc needs to be fixed ?

Kindly clarify. Pls Cc me.

Regards,
Bourne
