DESCRIPTION

15       This function is deprecated. Do note use. We encourage users to instead
16       use the poll(3) or select(3) functions to check for socket activity  or
17       when specific sockets are ready to get received from or send to.
18
19       Poll for activity on a socket, channel, listener, or any combination of
20       these three types. The calling semantics for  this  function  generally
21       match  poll(2) however the structure of fds is somewhat more complex in
22       order to accommodate the disparate  datatypes,  POLLFD  constants  have
23       been  namespaced to avoid platform discrepancies, and revents has addi‐
24       tional values defined.
25

RETURN VALUE

27       Number of fds with interesting events.
