You can only have one SIGIO handler, so it has to find out for itself
what exactly caused it to be called. LDD3 (http://lwn.net/Kernel/LDD3/;
Ch.6) says this:

"There is one remaining problem with input notification. When a process
receives a SIGIO, it doesnât know which input file has new input to
offer. If more than one file is enabled to asynchronously notify the
process of pending input, the application must still resort to poll or
select to find out what happened."
