Don’t include sys/select.h from sys/types.h.
This is supposedly present for BSD compatibility, but the current generation of BSDs is not consistent about it: FreeBSD does, OpenBSD doesn’t, NetBSD exposes only fd_set and the FD_* macros. Programs that need to wait for any of multiple I/O events have several alternatives to select nowadays, so I think it makes sense to expose select only to programs that specifically want it. Only a few places within our own code are affected. A few test programs need to include sys/select.h explicitly, as does rpc/svc.h. sysdeps/nptl/thread_db.h needs to declare sigset_t, and sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/pselect.c was including sys/poll.h instead of sys/select.h, which is probably a copy-and-paste error. sys/socket.h needs to forward-declare struct timespec under __USE_GNU, because recvmmsg has a struct timespec * argument; I’m open to the possibility of having it fully declare struct timespec. I considered taking sys/select.h out of sys/time.h as well, but POSIX not only explicitly allows this inclusion, it requires sys/time.h to declare almost everything that sys/select.h declares. It doesn’t seem worth creating another bits header just to prevent sys/time.h from declaring pselect, sigset_t, and struct timespec. Not including sys/select.h from sys/types.h means that sys/types.h also no longer defines anything from sys/time.h, and a couple of files were relying on that. (pthread_join_common.c should be using clock_gettime instead of gettimeofday, but that's out of scope for this patch series.) * posix/sys/types.h: Don’t include sys/select.h. * scripts/check-obsolete-constructs.py: Remove whitelist entry for sys/types.h -> sys/select.h. Adjust commentary re sys/time.h -> sys/select.h. * socket/sys/socket.h: When __USE_GNU, forward-declare struct timespec. * misc/tst-fdset.c, nptl/tst-cancel4.c, scripts/check-c++-types.sh * sunrpc/rpc/svc.h: Include sys/select.h. * sysdeps/nptl/thread_db.h: Include bits/types/sigset_t.h. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/pselect.c: Include sys/select.h, not sys/poll.h. * nptl/pthread_join_common.c, sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/dl-vdso.h: Include sys/time.h.
