** [tickets:#452] osaf: Allow us to use more than 1024 file descriptors**

**Status:** fixed
**Created:** Wed Jun 12, 2013 10:49 AM UTC by Anders Widell
**Last Updated:** Tue Dec 17, 2013 03:47 PM UTC
**Owner:** Anders Widell

Migrated from <http://devel.opensaf.org/ticket/695>

When I invoke saImmOmInitialize the first time, a few threads are created. At 
least two of these threads are using **select** (ncs_sel_obj_select and 
ncs_tmr_wait). This is very unfortunate as the usage of select implies a 
superflous limitation of the maximum number of open file descriptors in our 
processes. If you use **poll** in your agent libraries, you will enable us to 
use more than 1024 file descriptors.

It may be the case that there are other functions (than these mentioned above) 
that also are using select in OpenSAF agent libraries. See the stack trace from 
gdb below for details.
