/* NAME
/*	timed_write 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	write operation with pre-write timeout
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <iostuff.h>
/*
/*	ssize_t	timed_write(fd, buf, len, timeout, context)
/*	int	fd;
/*	const void *buf;
/*	size_t	len;
/*	int	timeout;
/*	void	*context;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	timed_write() performs a write() operation when the specified
/*	descriptor becomes writable within a user-specified deadline.
/*
/*	Arguments:
/* .IP fd
/*	File descriptor in the range 0..FD_SETSIZE.
/* .IP buf
/*	Write buffer pointer.
/* .IP len
/*	Write buffer size.
/* .IP timeout
/*	The deadline in seconds. If this is <= 0, the deadline feature
/*	is disabled.
/* .IP context
/*	Application context. This parameter is unused. It exists only
/*	for the sake of VSTREAM compatibility.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	When the operation does not complete within the deadline, the
/*	result value is -1, and errno is set to ETIMEDOUT.
/*	All other returns are identical to those of a write(2) operation.

     * success on pipes with less than PIPE_BUF bytes of space, and with
     * badly designed software where multiple writers are fighting for access
     * to the same resource.
