      Implements interfaces: twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet
A reactor that uses poll(2).
| Method | __init__ | Initialize polling object, file descriptor tracking dictionaries, and the base class. | 
| Method | addReader | Add a FileDescriptor for notification of data available to read. | 
| Method | addWriter | Add a FileDescriptor for notification of data available to write. | 
| Method | removeReader | Remove a Selectable for notification of data available to read. | 
| Method | removeWriter | Remove a Selectable for notification of data available to write. | 
| Method | removeAll | Remove all selectables, and return a list of them. | 
| Method | doPoll | Poll the poller for new events. | 
| Method | getReaders | Return the list of file descriptors currently monitored for input events by the reactor. | 
| Method | getWriters | Return the list file descriptors currently monitored for output events by the reactor. | 
| Instance Variable | _poller | A select.pollwhich will be used to check for I/O readiness. | 
| Instance Variable | _selectables | A dictionary mapping integer file descriptors to instances of FileDescriptorwhich have been registered with the reactor.  AllFileDescriptors
which are currently receiving read or write readiness notifications will be
present as values in this dictionary. | 
| Instance Variable | _reads | A dictionary mapping integer file descriptors to arbitrary values (this is 
essentially a set).  Keys in this dictionary will be registered with _pollerfor read readiness notifications which will be 
dispatched to the correspondingFileDescriptorinstances in_selectables. | 
| Instance Variable | _writes | A dictionary mapping integer file descriptors to arbitrary values (this is 
essentially a set).  Keys in this dictionary will be registered with _pollerfor write readiness notifications which will be 
dispatched to the correspondingFileDescriptorinstances in_selectables. | 
| Method | _updateRegistration | Register/unregister an fd with the poller. | 
| Method | _dictRemove | Undocumented | 
Inherited from _PollLikeMixin:
| Method | _doReadOrWrite | fd is available for read or write, do the work and raise errors if necessary. |
