Subject: [PATCH] Preserve select() behavior on arm64
On Linux, all the select-related syscalls update the timeout value to
indicate how much elapsed time the syscall consumed, and many programs
expect this behavior when running on Linux.
Newer archs like arm64 have deprecated the select syscall because the
pselect syscall is a superset implementation of the select syscall.
A complication of implementing select() with the pselect syscall is
that the timeouts are specified in different units; select() accepts
a struct timeval ptr whereas the pselect syscall takes a struct
timespec ptr. These are trivial convertible; struct timeval is
specified in seconds + microseconds and struct timespec is in
seconds + nanoseconds.
For kernel configurations without select syscall available, update the
caller's struct timeval argument after the pselect syscall.
