AIO operation and CMSG

[Stephan Müller]

Hi,

I am working on the user space library providing a wrapper to the AF_ALG user 
space interface [1]. The AF_ALG interface supports asynchronous operation 
which is utilized with the io_* system calls, including io_submit. All works 
as expected.

The syscall io_submit sends data to the kernel and invokes the respective 
handler function in the kernel such as the recvmsg handler. What I am 
wondering is whether there is a way to send CMSG data along with the io_submit 
syscall? If not, is CMSG handling with the AIO syscalls possible at all?

Thank you very much.
