| Description | This extension provides interface to the libeio library written by Marc Lehmann <libeio at schmorp dot de>(see http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libeio.html).
 
 Libeio is a an asynchronous I/O library. Features basically include
 asynchronous versions of POSIX API(read, write, open, close, stat, unlink,
 fdatasync, mknod, readdir etc.); sendfile (native on Solaris, Linux, HP-UX,
 FreeBSD); readahead. libeio itself emulates the system calls, if they are not
 available on specific(UNIX-like) platform.
 
 Currently this extension supports GNU/Linux and BSD platforms only. But you can
 try it on any UNIX OS.
