Never mind --- I figured it out:
FIONBIO
The argp parameter is a pointer to an unsigned long value. Set argp
to a nonzero value if the nonblocking mode should be enabled, or zero if
the nonblocking mode should be disabled. When a socket is created, it
operates in blocking mode by default (nonblocking mode is disabled).
This is consistent with BSD sockets.
argp value Nonblocking mode
0 Disabled
nonzero Enabled
