Content
The short description of epoll.poll is correct (gives timeout unit as seconds [float]; includes maxevents). However, the long description lists the timeout units as milliseconds ("If timeout is given, it specifies the length of time in milliseconds which the system will wait for events before returning."), and does not include maxevents at all. See https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/select.html#select.poll.poll See also https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/select.html#select.poll.poll
