Why PG_SETMASK() change errno to 0 when there is an elog() callbefore or after it? Is it a bug? - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

In founction ServerLoop() in code postmaster.c, after select(), we called PG_SETMASK(). If l add an elog() after PG_SETMASK(), I see errno is reset to 0 when PG_SETMASK() call suceeded. But the immediately code will actually check errno from the select() call which now has been overwritten by PG_SETMASK(). 

Can someone share some light on this?

Thanks
