=head1 NAME

nbd_poll - poll the handle once

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 #include <libnbd.h>

 int nbd_poll (
       struct nbd_handle *h, int timeout
     );

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a simple implementation of L<poll(2)> which is used
internally by synchronous API calls.  On success, it returns
C<0> if the C<timeout> (in milliseconds) occurs, or C<1> if
the poll completed and the state machine progressed. Set
C<timeout> to C<-1> to block indefinitely (but be careful
that eventual action is actually expected - for example, if
the connection is established but there are no commands in
flight, using an infinite timeout will permanently block).

This function is mainly useful as an example of how you might
integrate libnbd with your own main loop, rather than being
intended as something you would use.

=head1 RETURN VALUE

This call returns an integer E<ge> C<0>.

=head1 ERRORS

On error C<-1> is returned.

Refer to L<libnbd(3)/ERROR HANDLING>
for how to get further details of the error.

The following parameters must not be NULL: C<h>.
For more information see L<libnbd(3)/Non-NULL parameters>.

=head1 VERSION

This function first appeared in libnbd 1.0.

If you need to test if this function is available at compile time
check if the following macro is defined:

 #define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_POLL 1

=head1 EXAMPLE

This example is also available as F<examples/aio-connect-read.c>
in the libnbd source code.

 /* This example shows how to use the AIO (asynchronous) low
  * level API to connect to a server and read the disk.
  *
  * Here are a few ways to try this example:
  *
  * nbdkit -U - linuxdisk . \
  *   --run './aio-connect-read $unixsocket'
  *
  * nbdkit -U - floppy . \
  *   --run './aio-connect-read $unixsocket'
  *
  * nbdkit -U - pattern size=1M \
  *   --run './aio-connect-read $unixsocket'
