SubjectAIO!!
I wrote a small program to do Async IO from a raw disk
open has no problems.
My program gets stuck up at aio_read(paio);
!!WHY!!

-----------------------------------------------
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <aio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#define AIOLEN (256 * 1024)

int main(void)
{
   /* Allocate resources /
   struct aiocb *paio = (struct aiocb *) malloc(sizeof(struct aiocb));
   paio->aio_buf = malloc(AIOLEN);
   paio->aio_fildes = open("/dev/raw/raw1", O_DIRECT | O_RDWR);
   paio->aio_nbytes = AIOLEN;
   paio->aio_reqprio = 0; paio->aio_sigevent.sigev_notify = SIGEV_NONE;

   aio_read(paio);

   /* My program gets stuck here in this loop.  !!WHY!!  */
   while(aio_error(paio))
   {
     sched_yield();
   }
   aio_return(paio);

   /* Return all resources to Linux */
   close(paio->aio_fildes);
   free(paio->aio_buf);
   free(paio);
   return 0;
}
-----------------------------------------------
I also have tried inserting an 'aio_fsync' between 'aio_read' and the 
'while' loop ... to no avail.
