><P
>The function comedi_poll() is used on a subdevice that has a
Comedi command in progress in order to update the streaming buffer.
If supported by the driver, all available samples are copied to
the streaming buffer. These samples may be pending in DMA buffers
or device FIFOs. If sucessful, the number of additional bytes
available is returned. If there is an error, -1 is returned.</P
