Alexander Leidinger 6a1162d4cd MFP4 (with some minor changes):
Implement the linux_io_* syscalls (AIO). They are only enabled if the native
AIO code is available (either compiled in to the kernel or as a module) at
the time the functions are used. If the AIO stuff is not available there
will be a ENOSYS.

DESIGN NOTES:

1. Linux permits a process to own multiple AIO queues (distinguished by
   "context"), but FreeBSD creates only one single AIO queue per process.
   My code maintains a request queue (STAILQ of queue(3)) per "context",
   and throws all AIO requests of all contexts owned by a process into
   the single FreeBSD per-process AIO queue.

   When the process calls io_destroy(2), io_getevents(2), io_submit(2) and
   io_cancel(2), my code can pick out requests owned by the specified context
   from the single FreeBSD per-process AIO queue according to the per-context
   request queues maintained by my code.

2. The request queue maintained by my code stores contrast information between
   Linux IO control blocks (struct linux_iocb) and FreeBSD IO control blocks
   (struct aiocb). FreeBSD IO control block actually exists in userland memory
   space, required by FreeBSD native aio_XXXXXX(2).

3. It is quite troubling that the function io_getevents() of libaio-0.3.105
   needs to use Linux-specific "struct aio_ring", which is a partial mirror
   of context in user space. I would rather take the address of context in
   kernel as the context ID, but the io_getevents() of libaio forces me to
   take the address of the "ring" in user space as the context ID.

   To my surprise, one comment line in the file "io_getevents.c" of
   libaio-0.3.105 reads:

             Ben will hate me for this

2. Linux manual pages:         http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/manpages/
   (io_setup(2), io_destroy(2), io_getevents(2), io_submit(2), io_cancel(2))

4. The package libaio, both source and binary:
       http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=libaio
   Simple transparent interface to Linux AIO system calls.

5. Libaio-oracle:              http://oss.oracle.com/projects/libaio-oracle/
   POSIX AIO implementation based on Linux AIO system calls (depending on
   libaio).
