Subject[2.6.18-rc* PATCH RFC]: Correct ambiguous errno of aio
Sorry, the last post is corrupted by email client, this is a repost.

In the current implementation of AIO, for the operation IOCB_CMD_FDSYNC

and IOCB_CMD_FSYNC, the returned errno is -EINVAL although the kernel

does know them, I think the correct errno should be -EOPNOTSUPP which

means they aren't be implemented or supported.
