.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
#include <sys/select.h>
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.IR <sys/select.h>
header shall define the
.BR timeval
structure, which shall include at least the following members:
.sp
.RS 4
.nf
time_t tv_sec \fRSeconds.\fR
suseconds_t tv_usec \fRMicroseconds.\fR
.fi
.P
.RE
.P
The
.IR <sys/select.h>
header shall define the
.BR time_t
and
.BR suseconds_t
types as described in
.IR <sys/types.h> .
.P
The
.IR <sys/select.h>
header shall define the
.BR sigset_t
type as described in
.IR <signal.h> .
.P
The
.IR <sys/select.h>
header shall define the
.BR timespec
structure as described in
.IR <time.h> .
.P
The
.IR <sys/select.h>
header shall define the
.BR fd_set
type as a structure.
.P
The
.IR <sys/select.h>
header shall define the following symbolic constant, which shall have
a value suitable for use in
.BR #if
preprocessing directives:
.IP FD_SETSIZE 12
Maximum number of file descriptors in an
.BR fd_set
structure.
.P
The following shall be declared as functions, defined as macros, or
both. If functions are declared, function prototypes shall be
provided.
.sp
.RS 4
.nf
void FD_CLR(int, fd_set *);
int FD_ISSET(int, fd_set *);
void FD_SET(int, fd_set *);
void FD_ZERO(fd_set *);
.fi
.P
.RE
.P
If implemented as macros, these may evaluate their arguments more than
once, so applications should ensure that the arguments they supply are
never expressions with side-effects.
.P
The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as
macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.
.sp
.RS 4
.nf
int pselect(int, fd_set *restrict, fd_set *restrict, fd_set *restrict,
const struct timespec *restrict, const sigset_t *restrict);
int select(int, fd_set *restrict, fd_set *restrict, fd_set *restrict,
struct timeval *restrict);
.fi
.P
.RE
.P
Inclusion of the
.IR <sys/select.h>
header may make visible all symbols from the headers
.IR <signal.h>
and
.IR <time.h> .
