52 * start again until the work with the context is done.

54 * This function will NOT zero out the sets and assumes that @a max_fd
55 * and @a timeout are already set to minimal applicable values. It is
56 * safe to give this API FD-sets and @a max_fd and @a timeout that are
57 * already initialized to some other descriptors that need to go into

65 * if the existing sets have no FDs in it, the initial
66 * value should be "-1". (Note that `max_fd + 1` will need
67 * to be passed to select().)
