.TH io_fd 3
|

.SH NAME
|
|
io_fd \- prepare descriptor for io_wait
|
|
.SH SYNTAX
|
|
.B #include <libowfat/io.h>
|
|
|
|
int \fBio_fd\fP(int64 fd);
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
If you want to use io_canread() and io_canwrite() on a descriptor, you
|
|
have to use io_wait() on it first, and io_wait() has to know which
|
|
descriptors you are interested in. io_fd() informs io_wait() that you
|
|
are interested in this fd.
|
|
|
|
If you know that the descriptor is writable, call io_fd_canwrite()
|
|
instead. Most fresh descriptors are writable, e.g. if it came from
|
|
pipe(2) or socketpair(2) or accept(2). This will save one syscall.
|
|
|
|
io_pipe and io_socketpair already call io_fd_canwrite() for you.
|
|
|
|
Waiting on descriptors only works for sockets, fifos and pipes. It may
|
|
also work on devices and TTYs, but that is platform dependent -- you
|
|
should not rely on that. It does not work on files.
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
io_fd returns 1 on success, 0 on error.

.SH "SEE ALSO"
