# NAME
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
curl_multi_wait - polls on all easy handles in a multi handle
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
~~~c
|
||
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CURLMcode curl_multi_wait(CURLM *multi_handle,
|
||
|
|
struct curl_waitfd extra_fds[],
|
||
|
|
unsigned int extra_nfds,
|
||
|
|
int timeout_ms,
|
||
|
|
int *numfds);

# DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
curl_multi_wait(3) polls all file descriptors used by the curl easy
|
||
|
|
handles contained in the given multi handle set. It blocks until activity is
|
||
|
|
detected on at least one of the handles or *timeout_ms* has passed.
|
||
|
|
Alternatively, if the multi handle has a pending internal timeout that has a
|
||
|
|
shorter expiry time than *timeout_ms*, that shorter time is be used
|
||
|
|
instead to make sure timeout accuracy is reasonably kept.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The calling application may pass additional *curl_waitfd* structures which
|
||
|
|
are similar to *poll(2)*'s *pollfd* structure to be waited on in the
|
||
|
|
same call.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
On completion, if *numfds* is non-NULL, it gets populated with the total
|
||
|
|
number of file descriptors on which interesting events occurred. This number
|
||
|
|
can include both libcurl internal descriptors as well as descriptors provided
|
||
|
|
in *extra_fds*.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If no extra file descriptors are provided and libcurl has no file descriptor
|
||
|
|
to offer to wait for, this function returns immediately. (Consider using
|
||
|
|
curl_multi_poll(3) to avoid this behavior.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This function is encouraged to be used instead of select(3) when using the
|
||
|
|
multi interface to allow applications to easier circumvent the common problem
|
||
|
|
with 1024 maximum file descriptors.

# curl_waitfd
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
~~~c
|
||
|
|
struct curl_waitfd {
|
||
|
|
curl_socket_t fd;
|
||
|
|
short events;
|

## CURL_WAIT_POLLIN
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bit flag to *curl_waitfd.events* indicating the socket should poll on read
|
||
|
|
events such as new data received.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## CURL_WAIT_POLLPRI
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bit flag to *curl_waitfd.events* indicating the socket should poll on high
|
||
|
|
priority read events such as out of band data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## CURL_WAIT_POLLOUT
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bit flag to *curl_waitfd.events* indicating the socket should poll on
|
||
|
|
write events such as the socket being clear to write without blocking.
