What does this mean? select(1, [0], [], NULL, {60, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)

Mon Jan 22 15:07:21 UTC 2018

I have been having broken pipe messages for a while. I think since a 
network architecture change. But I am not sure because I have not been 
monitoring the errors closely before. I added this 
(https://rsync.samba.org/issues.html) rsync-debug.sh script with strace 
of 100. But I have no idea how to interper this output.

I guess between 00:55:41 and 03:06:47 nothing is happening? And then 
some timeout is generated? What does this 'select(1, [0], [], NULL, {60, 
0}) = 0 (Timeout)' mean?

Commandline
