+.Dt AIO_SUSPEND 2
+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm aio_suspend
+.Nd suspend until asynchronous I/O operations or timeout complete (REALTIME)
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Fd #include <aio.h>
+.Ft int
+.Fn aio_suspend "const struct aiocb * const iocbs[]" "int niocb" "const struct timespec * timeout"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn aio_suspend
+function suspends the calling process until at least one of the
+specified asynchronous I/O requests have completed, a signal is
+delivered, or the
+.Ar timeout
+has passed.
+.Pp
+.Ar iocbs
+is an array of
+.Ar niocb
+pointers to asynchronous I/O requests. Array members containing
+NULL will be silently ignored.
+.Pp
+If
+.Ar timeout
+is a non-nil pointer, it specifies a maximum interval to suspend.
+If
+.Ar timeout
+is a nil pointer, the suspend blocks indefinitely. To effect a
+poll, the
+.Ar timeout
+should point to a zero-value timespec structure.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+If one or more of the specified asynchronous I/O requests have
+completed,
+.Fn aio_suspend
+returns 0. Otherwise it returns -1 and sets
+.Va errno
+to indicate the error, as enumerated below.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr aio_cancel 2 ,
+.Xr aio_error 2 ,
+.Xr aio_read 2 ,
+.Xr aio_suspend 2 ,
+.Xr aio_write 2 .
+.Sh ERRORS
+The
+.Fn aio_suspend
+function will fail if:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.It Bq Er EAGAIN
+the
+.Ar timeout
+expired before any I/O requests completed.
+.It Bq Er EINVAL
+.Ar iocbs
+contains more than
+.Dv AIO_LISTIO_MAX
+asynchronous I/O requests, or at least one of the requests is not
+valid.
+.It Bq Er EINTR
+the suspend was interrupted by a signal.
+.El
+.Sh STANDARDS
+.Fn aio_suspend
+is expected to conform to the
+.St -p1003.2
+standard.
+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+function first appeared in
+.Fx 3.0 .
