As from OpenBSD (in shorter form): fd_set *fds = calloc(howmany(fd+1, NFDBITS), sizeof(fd_mask)); FD_SET(fd, fds); select(fd+1, fds...); As for being "portable", the only thing I've seen that is nice and neat is libevent from Niels Provos, but I think some people had "issues" with the way it handled kqueue support.
