  11 .TH EPOLL_WAIT 3C "Apr 17, 2014"
  12 .SH NAME
  13 epoll_wait, epoll_pwait \- wait for epoll events

  29 .SH DESCRIPTION

  30 The \fBepoll_wait()\fR function waits for events on the \fBepoll\fR(5)
  31 instance specified by \fIepfd\fR.  The \fIevents\fR parameter must point to
  32 an array of \fImaxevents\fR \fIepoll_event\fR structures to be
  33 filled in with pending events.  The \fItimeout\fR argument specifies the
  34 number of milliseconds to wait for an event if none is pending.  A
  35 \fItimeout\fR of -1 denotes an infinite timeout.
  36 
  37 The \fBepoll_pwait()\fR is similar to \fBepoll_wait()\fR, but takes an
  38 additional \fIsigmask\fR argument that specifies the desired signal mask
  39 when \fBepoll_pwait()\fR is blocked.  It is equivalent to atomically
  40 setting the signal mask, calling \fBepoll_wait()\fR, and restoring the
  41 signal mask upon return, and is therefore similar to the relationship
  42 between \fBselect\fR(3C) and \fBpselect\fR(3C).
  43 
  44 .SH RETURN VALUES

  45 Upon successful completion, \fBepoll_wait()\fR and \fBepoll_pwait()\fR return
  46 the number of events, or 0 if none was pending and \fItimeout\fR milliseconds
  47 elapsed.  If an error occurs, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate
  48 the error.

  90 .SH NOTES


  91 The \fBepoll\fR(5) facility is implemented for purposes of offering
  92 compatibility for Linux-borne applications; native
  93 applications should continue to prefer using event ports via the
  94 \fBport_create\fR(3C), \fBport_associate\fR(3C) and \fBport_get\fR(3C)
  95 interfaces.  See \fBepoll\fR(5) for compatibility details and restrictions.
