9.419 ioctl

POSIX specification:
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/ioctl.html

Gnulib module: ioctl

Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:

• On Windows platforms (excluding Cygwin), ioctl is called ioctlsocket, and error codes for this function are not placed in errno, and WSAGetLastError must be used instead.
• On glibc platforms, the second parameter is of type unsigned long rather than int.

Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:

• Most ioctl requests are platform and hardware specific.
