nbd_aio_connect_socket - connect directly to a connected socket

 #include <libnbd.h>
 int nbd_aio_connect_socket (struct nbd_handle *h, int sock);

Begin connecting to the connected socket "fd". Parameters behave as documented in nbd_connect_socket(3).

You can check if the connection is still connecting by calling nbd_aio_is_connecting(3), or if it has connected to the server and completed the NBD handshake by calling nbd_aio_is_ready(3), on the connection.

If the call is successful the function returns 0.

On error "-1" is returned.

Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details of the error.

The handle must be newly created, otherwise this call will return an error.

This function first appeared in libnbd 1.2.

If you need to test if this function is available at compile time check if the following macro is defined:

 #define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_AIO_CONNECT_SOCKET 1

nbd_aio_is_connecting(3), nbd_aio_is_ready(3), nbd_connect_socket(3), nbd_create(3), libnbd(3).
