seastar::file_handle Class Reference

Detailed Description

A shard-transportable handle to a file.

If you need to access a file (for reads only) across multiple shards, you can use the file::dup() method to create a file_handle, transport this file handle to another shard, and use the handle to create file object on that shard. This is more efficient than calling open_file_dma() again.
