Module Netsys_pollset_posix

module Netsys_pollset_posix: sig .. end

Pollsets for POSIX operating systems

val poll_based_pollset : unit -> Netsys_pollset.pollset

Returns a poll set whose implementation is based on the poll system call.

Win32: On Win32 this implementation works, but only for sockets, and is not cancellable in multi-threaded programs. (This is a restriction because we have to map it to the select call of the WinSock layer.)

val reset : unit -> unit

This module may keep some global state. This function resets this state. As the state may contain file descriptors, it is advisable to reset after calling fork to free these descriptors.
