33-----------
34
35This ioctl call returns an event if available. If an event is not
36available, the behavior depends on whether the device is in blocking or
37non-blocking mode. In the latter case, the call fails immediately with
38errno set to ``EWOULDBLOCK``. In the former case, the call blocks until an
39event becomes available.

45On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
46appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
47:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
