<p><tt>#include &lt;sys/select.h&gt;</tt></p>
</blockquote>
<h4><a name="tag_13_58_03"></a>DESCRIPTION</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>The <i>&lt;sys/select.h&gt;</i> header shall define the <b>timeval</b> structure that includes at least the following
members:</p>
<pre>
<tt>time_t tv_sec </tt> Seconds. <tt>
suseconds_t tv_usec </tt> Microseconds. <tt>
</tt>
</pre>
<p>The <b>time_t</b> and <b>suseconds_t</b> types shall be defined as described in <a href=
"../sys/types.h.html#tag_13_67"><i>&lt;sys/types.h&gt;</i></a> .</p>
<p>The <b>sigset_t</b> type shall be defined as described in <a href="../signal.h.html#"><i>&lt;signal.h&gt;</i></a> .</p>
<p>The <b>timespec</b> structure shall be defined as described in <a href="time.h.html"><i>&lt;time.h&gt;</i></a> .</p>
<p>The <i>&lt;sys/select.h&gt;</i> header shall define the <b>fd_set</b> type as a structure.</p>
<p>Each of the following may be declared as a function, or defined as a macro, or both:</p>
<dl compact>
<dt><b>void</b> <i>FD_CLR</i>(<b>int</b> <i>fd</i>, <b>fd_set *</b><i>fdset</i>)</dt>
<dd><br>
Clears the bit for the file descriptor <i>fd</i> in the file descriptor set <i>fdset</i>.</dd>
<dt><b>int</b> <i>FD_ISSET</i>(<b>int</b> <i>fd</i>, <b>fd_set *</b><i>fdset</i>)</dt>
<dd><br>
Returns a non-zero value if the bit for the file descriptor <i>fd</i> is set in the file descriptor set by <i>fdset</i>, and 0
otherwise.</dd>
<dt><b>void</b> <i>FD_SET</i>(<b>int</b> <i>fd</i>, <b>fd_set *</b><i>fdset</i>)</dt>
<dd><br>
Sets the bit for the file descriptor <i>fd</i> in the file descriptor set <i>fdset</i>.</dd>
<dt><b>void</b> <i>FD_ZERO</i>(<b>fd_set *</b><i>fdset</i>)</dt>
<dd><br>
Initializes the file descriptor set <i>fdset</i> to have zero bits for all file descriptors.</dd>
</dl>
<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>
<p>The following shall be defined as a macro:</p>
<dl compact>
<dt>FD_SETSIZE</dt>
<dd><br>
Maximum number of file descriptors in an <b>fd_set</b> structure.</dd>
</dl>
<p>The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.</p>
<pre>
<tt>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);
</tt>
</pre>
<p>Inclusion of the <i>&lt;sys/select.h&gt;</i> header may make visible all symbols from the headers <a href=
"../../basedefs/signal.h.html"><i>&lt;signal.h&gt;</i></a>, <a href="../../basedefs/sys/time.h.html"><i>&lt;sys/time.h&gt;</i></a>,
