I figured names outside the reserved namespace could be used in our
tests, and then they'd interfere.  I guess the reasoning is that, since
we control the tests too, we can just fix any such conflicts in the
tests, rigth?

*check*


This revised patch fixes both of these issues, and it poisons __poll and
poll at the end of include/poll-noeintr.h.


Retested on x86_64-linux-gnu.  Ok to install?

	[BZ #15819]
	* NEWS: Update.
	* nis/nis_callback.c (internal_nis_do_callback): Call
	__poll_noeintr, drop TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY.
	* nscd/nscd_helper.c (wait_on_socket): Call __poll_noeintr,
	drop loop and gettimeofday timeout recomputation.
	* sunrpc/clnt_udp.c (clntudp_call): Call __poll_noeintr.
	* sunrpc/clnt_unix.c (readunix): Likewise.
	* sunrpc/rtime.c (rtime): Likewise.
	* sunrpc/svc_run.c (svc_run): Likewise.
	* sunrpc/svc_tcp.c (readtcp): Likewise.
	* sunrpc/svc_unix.c (readunix): Likewise.
	* include/poll-noeintr.h: New header, included instead of
	sys/poll.h in all of the above.

How would they interfere?  We're not talking about external linkage names.

We don't have any precedent for using '#pragma poison' in libc.  I'm not
particularly against it, but it is something we have not seen before.  It
needs comments explaining what it means and why it's there.  I think we
should also have a consensus policy on use of this feature, which would be
written up on the wiki.

Make the guard macro match the file name.

This could let TIMEOUT go negative, which has the wrong semantics.
You need to cap it at zero.

We really should have some inlines/macros for these canonical time
conversion calculations, rather than repeating them.


Thanks,
