/* Non-blocking I/O is an I/O mode by which read(), write() calls avoid
|
|
blocking the current thread. When non-blocking is enabled:
|
|
- A read() call returns -1 with errno set to EAGAIN when no data or EOF
|
|
information is immediately available.
|
|
- A write() call returns -1 with errno set to EAGAIN when it cannot
|
|
transport the requested amount of data (but at most one pipe buffer)
|
|
without blocking.
|
|
Non-blocking I/O is most useful for character devices, pipes, and sockets.
|
|
Whether it also works on regular files and block devices is platform
|
|
dependent.
|
|
|
|
There are three modern alternatives to non-blocking I/O:
|
|
- use select() or poll() followed by read() or write() if the descriptor
|
|
is ready,
|
|
- call read() or write() in separate threads,
|
|
- use <aio.h> interfaces. */
