 * @param[in,out]  rfds       Set of FDs to wait for reads.
 * @param[in,out]  wfds       Set of FDs to wait for writes.
 * @param[in,out]  efds       Set of FDs to wait for OOBs.
 * @param[in,out]  timeout    Max blocking duration.
 * @retval         -1         Failed, errno set.
 * @retval          0         Timeout exceeded.
 * @retval         otherwise  Total number of file descriptors returned.
 * @post           `rfds` contains readable FDs.
 * @post           `wfds` contains writable FDs.
 * @post           `efds` contains exceptional FDs.
 * @post           `timeout` is the time left.
 * @note           All pointers are allowed to be null pointers.
 *
 * Although backend  threads can run in  parallel of this function,  touching a
 * file descriptor  from multiple threads  could be problematic.   For instance
 * what happens  when a  thread closes  a file descriptor  that is  selected by
 * someone else, vastly varies among operating systems.  You would better avoid
 * touching an fd from more than one threads.

 * @internal
 *
 * Although  any file  descriptors are  possible here,  it makes  completely no
 * sense to pass  a descriptor that is  not `O_NONBLOCK`.  If you  want to know
 * the reason for  this limitation in detail, you might  find this thread super
 * interesting: https://lkml.org/lkml/2004/10/6/117
