[PATCH 5/6] nfsd(7): Correct formatting of "select or poll"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@xxxxxxxxxx>

Man page: nfsd.7
Issue:    select(2) or poll(2) → B<select>(2) or B<poll>(2)

"If the program uses select(2) or poll(2) to discover if it can read from the "
"B<channel> then it will never see and end-of-file but when all requests have "
"been answered, it will block until another request appears."
