/* Winsock and TPF sockets are not in range [0..FD_SETSIZE-1] */
-/* There are various ways to wait for a socket to be ready to give or take
- * data. None of them are perfect.
- *
- * select() is available everywhere, but cannot take a file
- * descriptor numerically greater than FD_SETSIZE but cannot be reliably
- * interrupted by a signal.
- *
- * pselect() works with signals, but still has the file descriptor problem.
- * And some older systems don't have it.
- *
- * poll() (and equivalently on Windows, WSAPoll()) can take any file
- * descriptor, but has the signal problem. And some older systems
- * don't have it.
- *
- * The signal issue is this: We would like to be able to avoid the
- * wait if a signal has arrived since we last checked for it. All
- * these methods terminate the wait (with EINTR) if a signal arrives
- * while the waiting is underway, so it's just signals that happen
- * shortly before the wait that are a problem. With pselect(), this
- * is possible because it has the ability to simultaneously unblock
- * signals _after_ the wait begins. So you just block signals, then
- * check for arrival, then assuming no signals have arrived, call
- * pselect() with an argument that says to unblock signals. Any
- * signal that arrived after you blocked will thus interrupt the wait
- * and pselect() returns immediately.
- *
- * Curl_pselect() is our compromise among these. We use poll()
- * whenever it is available and select() otherwise. We emulate
- * pselect-like signal behavior by unblocking signals just before
- * calling poll() or select() and re-blocking after. This only
- * _approximates_ pselect(), because there is a window in which a
- * signal may arrive and we wait anyway.
- *
- * To reduce that window, we use pselect(), if it is available --
- * with no file descriptors -- just before the poll() or select() in
- * order to detect signals that arrived between when the caller
- * blocked signals and when he called Curl_pselect().
- *
- * Curl_select() is for callers who want us to ignore caught signals and
- * wait until a socket is ready or the timeout expires. We implement that
- * simply as a loop around Curl_pselect().
- *
- * There is a way to add signal interruptibility to poll(), which we
- * don't provide today: Let caller give us a file descriptor to add
- * to our list of wait-for-readable file descriptors. Caller passes
- * us the fd of a pipe. He doesn't block signals and his signal
- * handler writes to the other end of that pipe. Therefore, a signal
- * causes poll() to return, even if received before poll() was
- * called.
