I int lio_listio64 (int mode, struct aiocb *const list[], int nent, struct sigevent *sig)

This function is similar to the R code{lio_listio function. The only difference is that on R 32 bit machines, the file descriptor should be opened in the large file mode. Internally, R lio_listio64 uses functionality equivalent to R lseek64 to position the file descriptor correctly for the reading or writing, as opposed to R lseek functionality used in R lio_listio. When the sources are compiled with R _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64 , this function is available under the name R lio_listio and so transparently replaces the interface for small files on 32 bit machines.
