 * It is then possible to scan the chain of layers and find a layer
 * that one recongizes and therefore predict that it will implement
 * a desired protocol.
 *
 * There are three well-known identities:
 *      PR_INVALID_IO_LAYER => an invalid layer identity, for error return
 *      PR_TOP_IO_LAYER     => the identity of the top of the stack
 *      PR_NSPR_IO_LAYER    => the identity used by NSPR proper
 * PR_TOP_IO_LAYER may be used as a shorthand for identifying the topmost
 * layer of an existing stack. Ie., the following two constructs are
 * equivalent.
 *
 *      rv = PR_PushIOLayer(stack, PR_TOP_IO_LAYER, my_layer);
 *      rv = PR_PushIOLayer(stack, PR_GetLayersIdentity(stack), my_layer)
 *
 * A string may be associated with the creation of the identity. It
 * will be copied by the runtime. If queried the runtime will return
 * a reference to that copied string (not yet another copy). There
 * is no facility for deleting an identity.

** FUNCTION:    PR_Poll
** DESCRIPTION:
**
** The call returns as soon as I/O is ready on one or more of the underlying
** socket objects. A count of the number of ready descriptors is
** returned unless a timeout occurs in which case zero is returned.
**
** PRPollDesc.fd should be set to a pointer to a PRFileDesc object
** representing a socket. This field can be set to NULL to indicate to
** PR_Poll that this PRFileDesc object should be ignored.
** PRPollDesc.in_flags should be set to the desired request
** (read/write/except or some combination). Upon successful return from
** this call PRPollDesc.out_flags will be set to indicate what kind of
** i/o can be performed on the respective descriptor. PR_Poll() uses the
** out_flags fields as scratch variables during the call. If PR_Poll()
** returns 0 or -1, the out_flags fields do not contain meaningful values
** and must not be used.
**
** INPUTS:
**      PRPollDesc *pds         A pointer to an array of PRPollDesc
**
**      PRIntn npds             The number of elements in the array
**                              If this argument is zero PR_Poll is
**                              equivalent to a PR_Sleep(timeout).
**
**      PRIntervalTime timeout  Amount of time the call will block waiting
**                              for I/O to become ready. If this time expires
**                              w/o any I/O becoming ready, the result will
**                              be zero.
**
** OUTPUTS:    None
** RETURN:
**      PRInt32                 Number of PRPollDesc's with events or zero
**                              if the function timed out or -1 on failure.
**                              The reason for the failure is obtained by
**                              calling PR_GetError().

**
** Pollable events
**
** A pollable event is a special kind of file descriptor.
** The only I/O operation you can perform on a pollable event
** is to poll it with the PR_POLL_READ flag.  You can't
** read from or write to a pollable event.
**
** The purpose of a pollable event is to combine event waiting
** with I/O waiting in a single PR_Poll call.  Pollable events
** are implemented using a pipe or a pair of TCP sockets
** connected via the loopback address, therefore setting and
** waiting for pollable events are expensive operating system
** calls.  Do not use pollable events for general thread
** synchronization. Use condition variables instead.
**
** A pollable event has two states: set and unset.  Events
** are not queued, so there is no notion of an event count.
** A pollable event is either set or unset.
**
** A new pollable event is created by a PR_NewPollableEvent
** call and is initially in the unset state.
**
** PR_WaitForPollableEvent blocks the calling thread until
** the pollable event is set, and then it atomically unsets
** the pollable event before it returns.
**
** To set a pollable event, call PR_SetPollableEvent.
**
** One can call PR_Poll with the PR_POLL_READ flag on a pollable
** event.  When the pollable event is set, PR_Poll returns with
** the PR_POLL_READ flag set in the out_flags.
**
** To close a pollable event, call PR_DestroyPollableEvent
** (not PR_Close).
