Subject:   Strange select/poll behaviour [EBADF inconsistancy]

Hi,

   The following program returns an inconsistant rc/errno value.
Setting a bit corresponding to filedescriptor which is not open
is only found when it is less than 20. ie:

   Some example output follows along with the program. This is being
run on a -current system. If I open a file on fd 1023 then I receive
EBADF all the way through which is what I expect. Our product depends
on this behaviour (no, don't ask)...

   The man page specfies:
                                          The first nfds descriptors are
     checked in each set; i.e., the descriptors from 0 through nfds-1 in the
     descriptor sets are examined.

   I've seen that select seems to call poll, but I haven't trace
all the way through poll yet.

   Any comments, critiques, or stupid user pointers are appreciated.

Thanks!
John
