The misunderstanding is from the docs.
The select() does not report device errors.
Select will just "more precisely, to see if a read will not block".
This is a much slighter misunderstanding. The result of the 'select'
function tells you nothing about what a particular 'read' will or will not
do.
The docs 'precisely' says that it does. I'm sorry if you cannot trouble
yourself to read the man pages to address your issues with the correct
functionality of the select call.
Maybe you can address your issues and concerns with the documentation
folks.
thanks again.
