/*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*\ $Id$ NAME poll - select(2)-based poll() emulation function for BSD systems. SYNOPSIS #include "poll.h" struct pollfd { int fd; short events; short revents; } int poll (struct pollfd *pArray, unsigned long n_fds, int timeout) DESCRIPTION This file, and the accompanying "poll.h", implement the System V poll(2) system call for BSD systems (which typically do not provide poll()). Poll() provides a method for multiplexing input and output on multiple open file descriptors; in traditional BSD systems, that capability is provided by select(). While the semantics of select() differ from those of poll(), poll() can be readily emulated in terms of select() -- which is how this function is implemented. REFERENCES Stevens, W. Richard.
