You can set non-blocking mode.

d F_SETFL         s             10i 0 inz(7)
d O_NONBLOCK      s             10i 0 inz(128)

d EWOULDBLOCK     c                   const(3406)

c                   eval      returnCode = fcntl(sockDescSelf:
c                                                F_SETFL:
c                                                O_NONBLOCK)

When you do a read() you need to check return code <> 0  and errno for
EWOULDBLOCK
