     Syntax
          #include  <types.h>
          #include  <param.h>
          #include  <sysmacros.h>

          int ev_getemask(emaskp)
          emask_t *emaskp;

     Description
          ev_getemask returns the current event mask. This call takes
          a pointer to an event mask which is filled in. The program
          must have already opened an event queue.

          This call complements ev_setemask.  The manual page for
          ev_setemask describes an event mask in detail.

     Diagnostics
          ev_getemask returns -1 if there is no open event queue.
          Otherwise it returns 0.
