libsockev

libsockev is a portable wapper around poll/select implemented in C89. It manages an array of abstract stream sockets that have:

• C function callbacks on events
• filter chains (implemented as C functions) e.g. for record splitting
• buffered input and output to guarantee non-blocking operation

Currently the following socket types are supported:

• TCP on IPv4
• non-blocking stdin and stdout of the current process (bidirectional socket)
• async background processes (stdin, stdout, stderr bound to sockets)
• wrapper around any libporty (stream) socket
