Wait for signals on multiple objects.
#include <zircon/syscalls.h>
zx_status_t zx_object_wait_many(zx_wait_item_t* items,
size_t num_items,
zx_time_t deadline);
zx_object_wait_many()
is a blocking syscall that causes the caller to wait
until either the deadline passes or at least one object referred to in
items has a specified signal asserted. If an object is already
asserting at least one of the specified signals, the wait ends immediately with
ZX_OK.
typedef struct {
zx_handle_t handle;
zx_signals_t waitfor;
zx_signals_t pending;
} zx_wait_item_t;
The caller must provide count zx_wait_item_t
s in the items array,
containing the handle and signals bitmask to wait for for each item.
Each item should contain a valid handle referring to an object to
wait for, and a bitmask waitfor indicating which signals should wake
the calling thread.
The deadline parameter specifies a deadline with respect to ZX_CLOCK_MONOTONIC and will be automatically adjusted according to the job's timer slack policy. ZX_TIME_INFINITE is a special value meaning wait forever.
Upon return, the pending field of items is filled with bitmaps indicating which signals are pending for each item.
The maximum number of items that may be waited upon is ZX_WAIT_MANY_MAX_ITEMS, which is 64. To wait on more objects at once use Ports.
Every entry of items must have a handle field with ZX_RIGHT_WAIT.
zx_object_wait_many()
returns ZX_OK if any of waitfor signals were
active when the call was made, or observed on their respective object before
deadline passed.
In the event of ZX_ERR_TIMED_OUT, items may reflect state changes that occurred after the deadline passed, but before the syscall returned.
In the event of ZX_ERR_CANCELED, one or more of the items being waited upon have had their handles closed, and the pending field for those items will have the ZX_SIGNAL_HANDLE_CLOSED bit set.
For any other return value, the pending fields of items are undefined.
ZX_ERR_INVALID_ARGS items isn't a valid pointer.
ZX_ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE count is greater than ZX_WAIT_MANY_MAX_ITEMS.
ZX_ERR_BAD_HANDLE one of items contains an invalid handle.
ZX_ERR_ACCESS_DENIED One or more of the provided handles does not have ZX_RIGHT_WAIT and may not be waited upon.
ZX_ERR_CANCELED One or more of the provided handles was invalidated (e.g., closed) during the wait.
ZX_ERR_TIMED_OUT The specified deadline passed before any of the specified signals are observed on any of the specified handles. Note that calls with a count of 0 will still wait until deadline has passed before returning.
ZX_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED One of the items contains a handle that cannot be waited one (for example, a Port handle).
ZX_ERR_NO_MEMORY Failure due to lack of memory. There is no good way for userspace to handle this (unlikely) error. In a future build this error will no longer occur.
pending more properly should be called observed.
