Research direction
Start by locating the existing epoll bindings and related timeout definitions in the Rust libc crate. Check the epoll_pwait2 platform API requirements and existing binding conventions, then verify that the new symbol is exposed with the appropriate signature and platform gating. Done means Rust users can access epoll_pwait2 with the finer timeout granularity described in the issue.
