Definitions for the poll() function.
This file contains the definitions needed for using the poll() function, as directed by the POSIX 2008 standard (aka The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 7). Currently the functionality defined herein only works for sockets, and that is likely how it will stay for some time.
The poll() function works quite similarly to the select() function that it is quite likely that you'd be more familiar with.
typedef __uint32_t nfds_t |
Type representing a number of file descriptors.
Poll a group of file descriptors for activity.
This function will poll a group of file descriptors to check for the events specified on them. The function shall block for the specified period of time (in milliseconds) waiting for an event to occur. The function shall return as soon as at least one fd matches the events specified (or one of the error conditions), or when timeout expires.
fds | The file descriptors to check, and what events to look for on each. |
nfds | Number of elements in fds. |
timeout | Maximum amount of time to block, in milliseconds. Pass 0 to ensure the function does not block and -1 to block for an "infinite" amount of time, until an event occurs. |
