I'm using `select()` on a Linux/ARM platform to see if a udp socket has received a packet. I'd like to know how much time was remaining in the select call if it returns before the timeout (having detected a packet).

Something along the lines of:

```
int wait_fd(int fd, int msec)
{
    struct timeval tv;
    fd_set rws;

    tv.tv_sec = msec / 1000ul;
    tv.tv_usec = (msec % 1000ul) * 1000ul;

    FD_ZERO( & rws);
    FD_SET(fd, & rws);

    (void)select(fd + 1, & rws, NULL, NULL, & tv);

    if (FD_ISSET(fd, &rws)) { /* There is data */
        msec = (tv.tv_sec * 1000) + (tv.tv_usec / 1000);
        return(msec?msec:1);
    } else { /* There is no data */
        return(0);
    }
}

```
