38 root 1.14 POSIX optionally offers support for a monotonic clock source. EV
39     can take advantage of this clock source to detect time jumps
40     reliably. Unfortunately, some systems are bound to be broken, so you can
41     disable this here: you can completely disable the detection and use of
42     the monotonic clock by answering 'n' here. Support for this clock type
43 root 1.29 will otherwise be autodetected at both compile- and runtime. (this setting
44     currently affects the use of nanosleep over select as well).

55     POSIX optionally offers support for a (potentially) high-resolution
56     realtime clock interface. In a good implementation, using it is faster
57     than the normal method of using gettimeofday. Unfortunately, this option
58     is also bound to be broken on some systems, so you can disable use and
59     probing of this feature altogether here. Otherwise support for this clock
60     type will be autodetected at compiletime.

71 root 1.19 EV can use various backends with various portability issue. The select
72     backend is the most portable and makes for a good fallback, but it can be
73 root 1.22 limited to a low number of file descriptors and/or might not compile. If
74     you have problems with compiling ev_select.c, you might try to play around
75 root 1.19 with disabling it here, or forcing it to use the fd_set provided by your
76     OS, via the next question. I highly recommend keeping it in.
77    
78     EOF

87    
88     The select backend can operate in two modes. One uses the system-provided
89     fd_set and is usually limited to 1024 file descriptors (64 on windows),
90     the other requires your header files to define NFDBITS and declare a
91     suitable fd_mask type. If you run into problems compiling ev_select.c, you
92     can try forcing the use of the system fd_set here.
93    
94     EOF
95    
96     if (prompt ("Force use of system fd_set for select backend (y/n)?", "n") =~ /[yY]/) {
97     $DEFINE .= " -DEV_SELECT_USE_FD_SET";

108     The second very portable backend is poll(2). It does not exist on windows
109     and various versions of Mac OS X (and on the other versions it simply
110     doesn't work), but works basically everywhere else. It is recommended to use
111     the default here unless you run into compile problems in ev_poll.c.

121    
122 root 1.24 Select and poll make it hard to write efficient servers, especially if the
123     number of active connections is much lower than the watched ones. GNU/Linux
124     systems have a more scalable method called "epoll", which EV can use. For
125     this to work, both your kernel and glibc have to support epoll, but if you
126     can compile it, the detection will be done at runtime, and EV will safely
127     fall back to using select when epoll isn't available. If unsure, accept
128     the default.

130     EOF
131

137 root 1.15
138    
139 root 1.23 Similarly to the epoll backend above, EV can take advantage of kqueue on
140     many BSD systems. Support for kqueue will be detected at runtime, with a
141     safe fallback to other methods when it cannot be used.
142    
143 root 1.31 Note that kqueue is broken on most operating systems, so by default it
144     won't be used on many platforms, but you can still create your own event
145     loop with qkueue backend.
146    
147     Here is what we know:
148 root 1.23
149 root 1.28 NetBSD: partially working in at least 3.1. Yeah! :)
150 root 1.24 FreeBSD: broken on at least 6.2-STABLE,
151 root 1.28 sockets *likely* work, ptys definitely don't.
152 root 1.23 OpenBSD: reports indicate that it likely doesn't work
153     (similar problems as on FreeBSD).
154 root 1.28 OS X: completely, utterly broken on at least < 10.5.

167 root 1.21 Similarly to the kqueue backend above, EV can take advantage of the
168 root 1.26 solaris 10 event port interface. Support for event ports will be detected
169     at runtime, with a safe fallback to other methods when it cannot be used.

179    
180 root 1.11 EV needs the functions pthread_atfork and clock_gettime. On most systems
181 root 1.15 you need some special libraries for this (such as -lrt and -lpthread). You
182 root 1.23 can specify additional libraries to provide these calls (and any other
183     required by EV) now, or accept the default.

197 root 1.25 A backend of a different kind is the Linux inotify(7) interface, which can
198     be used to speed up (and reduce resource consumption) of stat watchers. If
199     you have it, it is usually a good idea to enable it.
