io_wantwrite(3)						       io_wantwrite(3)

NAME
       io_wantwrite - signal that you want to write to a descriptor

SYNTAX
       #include <io.h>

       void io_wantwrite(int64 fd);

DESCRIPTION
       io_wantwrite  tells  the	 next io_wait() that you want to write to this
       descriptor.  Call io_dontwantwrite() again if you change your mind.

       The next time you call io_wait(), it will look whether this  descriptor
       becomes	writeable,  too.   You	can  then  use	io_canwrite() to check
       whether the descriptor has become writable.

       You have to have called io_fd on	 the  descriptor  first	 (io_pipe  and
       io_socketpair  do this for you).	 Waiting on descriptors only works for
       sockets, fifos and pipes.  It may also work on devices  and  TTYs,  but
       that is platform dependent -- you should not rely on that.
