From 642b5123ac5ec40a28575e930a3e2ff595473e9d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Satoru Takeuchi Date: Thu, 5 Aug 2010 11:23:11 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] aio: fix wrong subsystem comments - sys_io_destroy(): acutually return -EINVAL if the context pointed to is invalidIndex: linux-2.6.33-rc4/fs/aio.c - sys_io_getevents(): An argument specifying timeout is not `when', but `timeout'. - sys_io_getevents(): Should describe what is returned if this syscall succeeds.
