12 int (*callback) (void *user_data, int *error);
13 void *user_data;
14 void (*free) (void *user_data);

17 int64_t nbd_aio_flush (
18 struct nbd_handle *h,
19 nbd_completion_callback completion_callback,
20 uint32_t flags
21 );
22
24 Issue the flush command to the NBD server.
25
26 To check if the command completed, call nbd_aio_command_completed(3).
27 Or supply the optional "completion_callback" which will be invoked as
28 described in "Completion callbacks" in libnbd(3).
29
30 Other parameters behave as documented in nbd_flush(3).
31
32 By default, libnbd will reject attempts to use this function with
33 parameters that are likely to result in server failure, such as
34 requesting an unknown command flag. The nbd_set_strict_mode(3)
35 function can be used to alter which scenarios should await a server
36 reply rather than failing fast.
37
39 This call returns the 64 bit cookie of the command. The cookie is ≥ 1.
40 Cookies are unique (per libnbd handle, not globally).
41
43 On error -1 is returned.
44
45 Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details
46 of the error.
47
48 The following parameters must not be NULL: "h". For more information
49 see "Non-NULL parameters" in libnbd(3).
50
52 The handle must be connected with the server, otherwise this call will
53 return an error.
54
56 This function first appeared in libnbd 1.0.
57
58 If you need to test if this function is available at compile time check
59 if the following macro is defined:
60
61 #define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_AIO_FLUSH 1
62
64 nbd_aio_command_completed(3), nbd_can_flush(3), nbd_create(3),
65 nbd_flush(3), nbd_set_strict_mode(3), "Issuing asynchronous commands"
66 in libnbd(3), libnbd(3).
