Archaic *nix history question

RE: Archaic *nix history question
Interesting - I'm curious what exact revision you're looking at, but the copy on Bitsavers (PDF pg. 228) lists aioread() etc., while the modern documentation has it as aio_read() etc. - and the arguments for each are substantially different (the modern POSIX version takes a pointer to a separate control-block structure, while the SunOS version takes the arguments individually.) Wonder how this evolved over time...
