PARPORT_WAIT_EVENT(9)	     Parallel Port Devices	 PARPORT_WAIT_EVENT(9)

NAME
       parport_wait_event - wait for an event on a parallel port

SYNOPSIS
       int parport_wait_event(struct parport * port, signed long timeout);

ARGUMENTS
       port
	   port to wait on

       timeout
	   time to wait (in jiffies)

DESCRIPTION
       This function waits for up to timeout jiffies for an interrupt to occur
       on a parallel port. If the port timeout is set to zero, it returns
       immediately.

       If an interrupt occurs before the timeout period elapses, this function
       returns zero immediately. If it times out, it returns one. An error
       code less than zero indicates an error (most likely a pending signal),
       and the calling code should finish what it´s doing as soon as it can.
