NAME

       io_uring_prep_timeout_update - prepare a request to update an
       existing timeout

SYNOPSIS

       #include <liburing.h>

       void io_uring_prep_timeout_update(struct io_uring_sqe *sqe,
                                         struct __kernel_timespec *ts,
                                         __u64 user_data,
                                         unsigned flags);

       void io_uring_prep_timeout_remove(struct io_uring_sqe *sqe,
                                         __u64 user_data,
                                         unsigned flags);

DESCRIPTION

       These functions modify or cancel an existing timeout request. The
       submission queue entry sqe is setup to arm a timeout update or
       removal specified by user_data and with modifier flags given by
       flags.  Additionally, the update request includes a ts structure,
       which contains new timeout information.

       For an update request, the flags member may contain a bitmask of
       the following values:

       IORING_TIMEOUT_ABS
              The value specified in ts is an absolute value rather than
              a relative one.

       IORING_TIMEOUT_BOOTTIME
              The boottime clock source should be used.

       IORING_TIMEOUT_REALTIME
              The realtime clock source should be used.

       IORING_TIMEOUT_ETIME_SUCCESS
              Consider an expired timeout a success in terms of the
              posted completion.  Normally a timeout that triggers would
              return in a -ETIME CQE res value.

       The timeout remove command does not currently accept any flags.

RETURN VALUE

       None

ERRORS

       These are the errors that are reported in the CQE res field. On
       success, 0 is returned.

       -ENOENT
              The timeout identified by user_data could not be found. It
              may be invalid, or triggered before the update or removal
              request was processed.

       -EALREADY
              The timeout identified by user_data is already firing and
              cannot be canceled.

       -EINVAL
              One of the fields set in the SQE was invalid. For example,
              two clocksources where given, or the specified timeout
              seconds or nanoseconds where < 0.

       -EFAULT
              io_uring was unable to access the data specified by ts.

NOTES

       As with any request that passes in data in a struct, that data
       must remain valid until the request has been successfully
       submitted. It need not remain valid until completion. Once a
       request has been submitted, the in-kernel state is stable. Very
       early kernels (5.4 and earlier) required state to be stable until
       the completion occurred. Applications can test for this behavior
       by inspecting the IORING_FEAT_SUBMIT_STABLE flag passed back from
       io_uring_queue_init_params(3).
