In general you can register as many read and/or write event watchers oer +fd as you want (as long as you don't confuse yourself). Setting all file +descriptors to non-blocking mode is also usually a good idea (but not +required if you know what you are doing).

You have to be careful with dup'ed file descriptors, though. Some backends +(the linux epoll backend is a notable example) cannot handle dup'ed file +descriptors correctly if you register interest in two or more fds pointing +to the same file/socket etc. description.

If you must do this, then force the use of a known-to-be-good backend +(at the time of this writing, this includes only EVMETHOD_SELECT and +EVMETHOD_POLL).
