>From 'man poll' :

"The  timeout  argument  specifies  an upper limit on the time for which
poll() will block, in milliseconds.  Specifying  a  negative  value  in
timeout means an infinite timeout."


We can't provide a test case here because one needs hardware (receiver) to test
this behaviour.

The current situation is that with infinite timeout set (-1), writes return
immediately regardless of whether they managed to write the data or not (the
poll is not executed), and this should happen only with a timeout of 0.
