Previously, pgbench always used select(2) for this purpose, but that's problematic for very high client counts, because select() can't deal with file descriptor numbers larger than FD_SETSIZE. It's pretty common for that to be only 1024 or so, whereas modern OSes can allow many more open files than that. Using poll(2) would surmount that problem, but it creates another one: poll()'s timeout resolution is only 1ms, which is poor enough to cause problems with --rate specifications approaching or exceeding 1K TPS. On platforms that have ppoll(2), which includes Linux and recent FreeBSD, we can use that to avoid the FD_SETSIZE problem without any loss of timeout resolution. Hence, add configure logic to test for ppoll(), and use it if available. This patch introduces an abstraction layer into pgbench that could be extended to support other kernel event-wait APIs such as kevents. But actually adding such support is a matter for some future patch.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
