Looks like you are going to have spend a good bit more time 
in the code.  The function is explained in the comments
in process.c.

/****************************************************************************
  Do a select on an two fd's - with timeout. 

  If a local udp message has been pushed onto the
  queue (this can only happen during oplock break
  processing) call async_processing()

  If a pending smb message has been pushed onto the
  queue (this can only happen during oplock break
  processing) return this next.

  If the first smbfd is ready then read an smb from it.
  if the second (loopback UDP) fd is ready then read a message
  from it and setup the buffer header to identify the length
  and from address.
  Returns False on timeout or error.
  Else returns True.

The timeout is in milliseconds
****************************************************************************/
static BOOL receive_message_or_smb(char *buffer, int buffer_len, 
				int timeout)
{
...
}
