These being OS functions, you probably have interfacing
packages for your compiler. For some, you might be able to use
POSIX packages;  others, such as access to /dev/anything are
really OS specific, not typically built into
any programming language, but rather available as
library calls.  In case you want to call them directly,
as you would using C, just call them, after, say,

   function select
     (nfds: C.int, ... etc etc ...) retrun C.int;

   pragma Inport(C, select);
