[PATCH 0/5] Add kernel AIO support for POSIX AIO

[Sébastien Dugué]

  This set of patches adds functionality to the kernel AIO 
infrastructure to be used by user level libraries aiming at implementing
a POSIX compliant API on top of this kernel support.

  This patchset is comprised of 5 patches, each implementing a specific
functionality:

	- aiomaxevents: adds a sysctl variable for setting the default 
	  AIO context event ring size at runtime. This tunable is 
	  accessible via /proc/sys/fs/posix-aio-default-max-nr.

	- aioevent: adds support for request completion notification.

	- lioevent: adds support for list of requests completion 
	  notification.

	- liowait: adds support for the POSIX listio LIO_WAIT mechanism.

	- cancelfd: adds support for cancellation against a file 
	  descriptor.

 These patches apply cleanly on a vanilla 2.6.12 kernel tree and should 
be applied in the order shown before.
