 * @fd: file handle to monitor for events
 * @events: bitset of events to watch from virEventHandleType constants
 * @cb: callback to invoke when an event occurs
 * @opaque: user data to pass to callback
 * @ff: callback to free opaque when handle is removed
 *
 * Register a callback for monitoring file handle events.  This function
 * requires that an event loop has previously been registered with
 * virEventRegisterImpl() or virEventRegisterDefaultImpl().
 *
 * @fd must always always be a C runtime file descriptor. On Windows
 * if the caller only has a HANDLE, the _open_osfhandle() method can
 * be used to open an associated C runtime file descriptor for use
 * with this API. After opening a runtime file descriptor, CloseHandle()
 * must not be used, instead close() will close the runtime file
 * descriptor and its original associated HANDLE.
 *
 * Returns -1 if the file handle cannot be registered, otherwise a handle
 * watch number to be used for updating and unregistering for events.
