# mongoc_gridfs_file_readv()

## Synopsis

    ssize_t
    mongoc_gridfs_file_readv (mongoc_gridfs_file_t *file,
                              mongoc_iovec_t *iov,
                              size_t iovcnt,
                              size_t min_bytes,
                              uint32_t timeout_msec);

## Parameters

- `file`: A mongoc_gridfs_file_t.
- `iov`: An array of mongoc_iovec_t.
- `iovcnt`: The number of elements in `iov`.
- `min_bytes`: The minimum number of bytes that must be read or an error will be synthesized.
- `timeout_msec`: Unused.

## Description

This function performs a scattered read from `file`, potentially blocking to read from the MongoDB server.

The `timeout_msec` parameter is unused.

## Returns

Returns the number of bytes read, or -1 on failure. Use mongoc_gridfs_file_error() to retrieve error details.
