poll.h - definitions for the poll() function
Návod, kniha: POSIX Programmer's Manual
#include <poll.h>
The
<poll.h> header shall define the
pollfd structure that
includes at least the following members:
int fd The following descriptor being polled.
short events The input event flags (see below).
short revents The output event flags (see below).
The
<poll.h> header shall define the following type through
typedef:
- nfds_t
- An unsigned integer type used for the number of file
descriptors.
The implementation shall support one or more programming environments in which
the width of
nfds_t is no greater than the width of type
long.
The names of these programming environments can be obtained using the
confstr() function or the
getconf utility.
The following symbolic constants shall be defined, zero or more of which may be
OR'ed together to form the
events or
revents members in the
pollfd structure:
- POLLIN
- Data other than high-priority data may be read without
blocking.
- POLLRDNORM
- Normal data may be read without blocking.
- POLLRDBAND
- Priority data may be read without blocking.
- POLLPRI
- High priority data may be read without blocking.
- POLLOUT
- Normal data may be written without blocking.
- POLLWRNORM
- Equivalent to POLLOUT.
- POLLWRBAND
- Priority data may be written.
- POLLERR
- An error has occurred ( revents only).
- POLLHUP
- Device has been disconnected ( revents only).
- POLLNVAL
- Invalid fd member ( revents only).
The significance and semantics of normal, priority, and high-priority data are
file and device-specific.
The following shall be declared as a function and may also be defined as a
macro. A function prototype shall be provided.
int poll(struct pollfd[], nfds_t, int);
