/* NAME
/*	poll_fd 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	wait until file descriptor becomes readable or writable
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <iostuff.h>
/*
/*	int	readable(fd)
/*	int	fd;
/*
/*	int	writable(fd)
/*	int	fd;
/*
/*	int	read_wait(fd, time_limit)
/*	int	fd;
/*	int	time_limit;
/*
/*	int	write_wait(fd, time_limit)
/*	int	fd;
/*	int	time_limit;
/*
/*	int	poll_fd(fd, request, time_limit, true_res, false_res)
/*	int	fd;
/*	int	request;
/*	int	time_limit;
/*	int	true_res;
/*	int	false_res;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	The read*() and write*() functions in this module are macros
/*	that provide a convenient interface to poll_fd().
/*
/*	readable() asks the kernel if the specified file descriptor
/*	is readable, i.e. a read operation would not block.
/*
/*	writable() asks the kernel if the specified file descriptor
/*	is writable, i.e. a write operation would not block.
/*
/*	read_wait() waits until the specified file descriptor becomes
/*	readable, or until the time limit is reached.
/*
/*	write_wait() waits until the specified file descriptor
/*	becomes writable, or until the time limit is reached.
/*
/*	poll_fd() waits until the specified file descriptor becomes
/*	readable or writable, or until the time limit is reached.
/*
/*	Arguments:
/* .IP fd
/*	File descriptor. With implementations based on select(), a
/*	best effort is made to handle descriptors >=FD_SETSIZE.
/* .IP request
/*	POLL_FD_READ (wait until readable) or POLL_FD_WRITE (wait
/*	until writable).
/* .IP time_limit
/*	A positive value specifies a time limit in seconds. A zero
/*	value effects a poll (return immediately).  A negative value
/*	means wait until the requested POLL_FD_READ or POLL_FD_WRITE
/*	condition becomes true.
/* .IP true_res
/*	Result value when the requested POLL_FD_READ or POLL_FD_WRITE
/*	condition is true.
/* .IP false_res
/*	Result value when the requested POLL_FD_READ or POLL_FD_WRITE
/*	condition is false.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	Panic: interface violation. All system call errors are fatal
/*	unless specified otherwise.
/*
/*	readable() and writable() return 1 when the requested
/*	POLL_FD_READ or POLL_FD_WRITE condition is true, zero when
/*	it is false. They never return an error indication.
/*
/*	read_wait() and write_wait() return zero when the requested
/*	POLL_FD_READ or POLL_FD_WRITE condition is true, -1 (with
/*	errno set to ETIMEDOUT) when it is false.
/*
/*	poll_fd() returns true_res when the requested POLL_FD_READ
/*	or POLL_FD_WRITE condition is true, false_res when it is
/*	false.  When poll_fd() returns a false_res value < 0, it
/*	also sets errno to ETIMEDOUT.
