NAME         top

       io_uring_prep_link_timeout - a timeout request for linked sqes

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <liburing.h>

       void io_uring_prep_link_timeout(struct io_uring_sqe *sqe,
                                       struct __kernel_timespec *ts,
                                       unsigned flags);

DESCRIPTION         top

       The io_uring_prep_link_timeout(3) function prepares a timeout
       request for linked sqes. The submission queue entry sqe is
       setup a timeout specified by ts.  The flags argument holds
       modifier flags for the timeout behaviour of the request.

       The ts argument must be filled in with the appropriate
       information for the timeout. It looks as follows:

           struct __kernel_timespec {
               __kernel_time64_t tv_sec;
               long long tv_nsec;
           };

       The flags argument may contain:

       IORING_TIMEOUT_ABS
              The value specified in ts is an absolute value rather than
              a relative one.

       IORING_TIMEOUT_BOOTTIME
              The boottime clock source should be used.

       IORING_TIMEOUT_REALTIME
              The realtime clock source should be used.

       IORING_TIMEOUT_ETIME_SUCCESS
              Consider an expired timeout a success in terms of the
              posted completion.

       It is invalid to create a chain (linked sqes) consisting only of
       a link timeout request. If all the requests in the chain are
       completed before timeout, then the link timeout request gets
       cancelled. Upon timeout, all the uncompleted requests in the
       chain get cancelled.

RETURN VALUE         top

       None

ERRORS         top

       These are the errors that are reported in the CQE res field. On
       success, 0 is returned.

       -ETIME The specified timeout occurred and triggered the
              completion event.

       -EINVAL
              One of the fields set in the SQE was invalid. For example,
              two clock sources where given, or the specified timeout
              seconds or nanoseconds where < 0.

       -EFAULT
              io_uring was unable to access the data specified by ts.

       -ECANCELED
              The timeout was canceled because all submitted requests
              were completed successfully or one of the
              requests resulted in failure.
