proc epoll_create*(size: cint): cint {.importc: "epoll_create",

  ## Creates an epoll instance.  Returns an fd for the new instance.
  ## 
  ## The "size" parameter is a hint specifying the number of file
  ## descriptors to be associated with the new instance.  The fd
  ## returned by epoll_create() should be closed with close().

proc epoll_create1*(flags: cint): cint {.importc: "epoll_create1",
    header: "<sys/epoll.h>".}
  ## Same as epoll_create but with an FLAGS parameter.  The unused SIZE
  ## parameter has been dropped.

proc epoll_ctl*(epfd: cint; op: cint; fd: cint | SocketHandle; event: ptr EpollEvent): cint {.
    importc: "epoll_ctl", header: "<sys/epoll.h>".}
  ## Manipulate an epoll instance "epfd". Returns ``0`` in case of success,
  ## ``-1`` in case of error (the "errno" variable will contain the specific error code).
  ## 
  ## The "op" parameter is one of the ``EPOLL_CTL_*``
  ## constants defined above. The "fd" parameter is the target of the
  ## operation. The "event" parameter describes which events the caller
  ## is interested in and any associated user data.

                 timeout: cint): cint {.importc: "epoll_wait",
    header: "<sys/epoll.h>".}
  ## Wait for events on an epoll instance "epfd". Returns the number of
  ## triggered events returned in "events" buffer. Or -1 in case of
  ## error with the "errno" variable set to the specific error code. The
  ## "events" parameter is a buffer that will contain triggered
  ## events. The "maxevents" is the maximum number of events to be
  ## returned ( usually size of "events" ). The "timeout" parameter
  ## specifies the maximum wait time in milliseconds (-1 == infinite).
  ##
  ## This function is a cancellation point and therefore not marked with
  ## __THROW.

#                  timeout: cint; ss: ptr sigset_t): cint {.
#    importc: "epoll_pwait", header: "<sys/epoll.h>".}
# Same as epoll_wait, but the thread's signal mask is temporarily
# and atomically replaced with the one provided as parameter.
#
# This function is a cancellation point and therefore not marked with
# __THROW.
