Just an addition to the sample:
fds[3] = sem3; fds[4] = sem4; fds[5] = sem5; fds[6] = sem6;
.. and wait for any of them? or for all together? and sure have this mixed with descriptors.
Wellknown win32 api WaitForMultipleObjects provides such functionality, and having something like that would help to port the applications using that api.

something like this:
int sem = create_our_pollable_semaphore(); ... ... pollfd fds[xxx];
for(i=0; i < countof(fds); fds[i++].events = POLLIN|POLLOUT); fds[0].fd = sem; fds[1].fd = server_sock1; fds[2].fd = cmd_sock2; while ( poll(fds, countof(fds), -1) >= 0 ) ... Thank you in advance Alex Riesen
