io_uring_prep_unlinkat(3) liburing Manual io_uring_prep_unlinkat(3)
io_uring_prep_unlinkat - prepare an unlinkat request
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <liburing.h>
void io_uring_prep_unlinkat(struct io_uring_sqe *sqe,
int dirfd,
const char *path,
int flags);
void io_uring_prep_unlink(struct io_uring_sqe *sqe,
const char *path,
int flags);
The io_uring_prep_unlinkat(3) function prepares an unlinkat
request. The submission queue entry sqe is setup to use the
directory file descriptor pointed to by dirfd to start an
unlinkat operation on the path identified by path and using the
flags given in flags.
The io_uring_prep_unlink(3) function prepares an unlink request.
The submission queue entry sqe is setup to start an unlinkat
operation on the path identified by path relative to the current
working directory and using the flags given in flags.
These functions prepare an async unlinkat(2) or unlink(2)
request. See those man pages for details.
None
The CQE res field will contain the result of the operation. See
the related man page for details on possible values. Note that
where synchronous system calls will return -1 on failure and set
errno to the actual error value, io_uring never uses errno.
Instead it returns the negated errno directly in the CQE res
field.
As with any request that passes in data in a struct, that data
must remain valid until the request has been successfully
submitted. It need not remain valid until completion. Once a
request has been submitted, the in-kernel state is stable. Very
early kernels (5.4 and earlier) required state to be stable until
the completion occurred. Applications can test for this behavior
by inspecting the IORING_FEAT_SUBMIT_STABLE flag passed back from
io_uring_queue_init_params(3).
