+.SH NAME
+pcap_setnonblock, pcap_getnonblock \- set or get the state of
+non-blocking mode on a capture device
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.ft B
+#include <pcap/pcap.h>
+.ft
+.LP
+.nf
+.ft B
+char errbuf[PCAP_ERRBUF_SIZE];
+.ft
+.LP
+.ft B
+int pcap_setnonblock(pcap_t *p, int nonblock, char *errbuf);
+int pcap_getnonblock(pcap_t *p, char *errbuf);
+.ft
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B pcap_setnonblock()
+puts a capture handle into ``non-blocking'' mode, or takes it out
+of ``non-blocking'' mode, depending on whether the
+.I nonblock
+argument is non-zero or zero.  It has no effect on ``savefiles''.
+If there is an error, \-1 is returned and
+.I errbuf
+is filled in with an appropriate error message; otherwise, 0 is
+returned.
+In
+``non-blocking'' mode, an attempt to read from the capture descriptor
+with
+.B pcap_dispatch()
+will, if no packets are currently available to be read, return 0
+immediately rather than blocking waiting for packets to arrive.
+.B pcap_loop()
+and
+.B pcap_next()
+will not work in ``non-blocking'' mode.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.B pcap_getnonblock()
+returns the current ``non-blocking'' state of the capture descriptor; it
+always returns 0 on ``savefiles''.
+If there is an error, \-1 is returned and
+.I errbuf
+is filled in with an appropriate error message.
+.PP
+.I errbuf
+is assumed to be able to hold at least
+.B PCAP_ERRBUF_SIZE
+chars.
