Using this combination or any two of those flags can causes poll() to return an incorrect number of structs containing returned events.
After looking through the source I noticed that poll() returns the value from cygwin_select. This is incorrect as cygwin_select() returns the total number of descriptors containing events for the send, recv, and except parts during the select() call.
Hmm, all these descriptors are getting a non-0 content in revents so the number should be the same. Or do I miss something?
select's return value is subtly different from poll's. select returns the number of events. poll returns the number of fd's with events. If an fd has more than one event, select will return a higher number than poll.
This reminds me -- has anyone run the posix regression tests against Cygwin lately? Maybe they'd catch stuff like this. - Dan
