> What's the use case for not wanting to use an extra FD? A selector may be used a few millisecond just to check if a socket is ready, and then destroyed. For such use case, select() is maybe enough (1 syscall). Epoll requires more system calls: create the epoll FD, register the socket, poll, destroy the epoll FD (4 syscalls).
