io_timeout(3)		    Library Functions Manual		   io_timeout(3)

NAME
     io_timeout - set time limit on descriptor

SYNTAX
     #include <libowfat/io.h>

     void io_timeout(int64 fd,tai6464 deadline);

DESCRIPTION
     The  io library keeps track of an optional ``timeout'' for each descriptor.
     The timeout is a specific moment in time, stored in a tai6464 variable.

     io_timeout(d,t) sets the timeout for descriptor d to t.

     io_timeout has no return value; it always succeeds.  (Space  to  store  the
     timeout  was already allocated as part of the descriptor.) It has no effect
     if d is not the number of a descriptor.

     Note that you have to call io_timeouted to be notified  of  timeouts,  just
     like you are calling io_canread or io_canwrite for read and write notifica-
     tion.
