This package provides an integration of Linux kernel-level asynchronous I/O to the Tokio platform.
Linux kernel-level asynchronous I/O is different from the Posix AIO library. Posix AIO is implemented using a pool of userland threads, which invoke regular, blocking system calls to perform file I/O. Linux kernel-level AIO, on the other hand, provides kernel-level asynchronous scheduling of I/O operations to the underlying block device.
Note: This is an initial check-in to reserve the crate name within crates.io. A real implementation will be available soon.
