io_dontwantwrite(3) Library Functions Manual io_dontwantwrite(3)NAME
io_dontwantwrite - signal that you do not want to write to a descriptor
SYNTAX
#include <io.h>
void io_dontwantwrite(int64 fd);
DESCRIPTION
io_dontwantwrite tells the next io_wait() that you don't want to write to this descriptor for now. Call io_wantwrite() again if you change
your mind.
You have to have called io_fd on the descriptor first (io_pipe and io_socketpair do this for you). Waiting on descriptors only works for
sockets, fifos and pipes. It may also work on devices and TTYs, but that is platform dependent -- you should not rely on that.

io_canread(3) Library Functions Manual io_canread(3)NAME
io_canread - return a file descriptor that can be read from
SYNTAX
#include <io.h>
int64 io_canread();
DESCRIPTION
io_canread returns the next file descriptor that can be read from. You have to have used io_wantread() on the file descriptor earlier, and
you have to have called io_wait() or io_waituntil().
These functions then keep an internal data structure on which descriptors were reported readable by the operating system.
Please note that there is no guarantee that there still is data that can be read from the descriptor, just that there was data when
io_wait() or io_waituntil() were called. Another process could have read the data before you. Look at the result from io_tryread().
If there are no more descriptors that you can write to without blocking, io_canwrite will return -1. In this case you should call
io_wait() or io_waituntil() again.
You should use io_tryread(3) to read from the descriptor, not plain read(2). If you use read(2) and you get EAGAIN, call io_eagain(3).
