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

56     POSIX optionally offers support for a (potentially) high-resolution
57     realtime clock interface. In a good implementation, using it is faster
58     than the normal method of using gettimeofday. Unfortunately, this option
59 root 1.39 is also bound to be broken on some systems, and current EV versions do not
60     actually call C<gettimeofday> very often, so ti defaults to no.

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]/) {

107    
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.

120 root 1.19
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.

140    
141 root 1.23 Similarly to the epoll backend above, EV can take advantage of kqueue on
142     many BSD systems. Support for kqueue will be detected at runtime, with a
143     safe fallback to other methods when it cannot be used.
144    
145 root 1.31 Note that kqueue is broken on most operating systems, so by default it
146     won't be used on many platforms, but you can still create your own event
147 root 1.40 loop with kqueue backend if you ask specifically for it.
148 root 1.31
149     Here is what we know:
150 root 1.23
151 root 1.28 NetBSD: partially working in at least 3.1. Yeah! :)
152 root 1.24 FreeBSD: broken on at least 6.2-STABLE,
153 root 1.28 sockets *likely* work, ptys definitely don't.
154 root 1.23 OpenBSD: reports indicate that it likely doesn't work
155     (similar problems as on FreeBSD).
156 root 1.28 OS X: completely, utterly broken on at least < 10.5.

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

180 root 1.21
181    
182 root 1.11 EV needs the functions pthread_atfork and clock_gettime. On most systems
183 root 1.15 you need some special libraries for this (such as -lrt and -lpthread). You
184 root 1.23 can specify additional libraries to provide these calls (and any other
185     required by EV) now, or accept the default.

198    
199 root 1.25 A backend of a different kind is the Linux inotify(7) interface, which can
200     be used to speed up (and reduce resource consumption) of stat watchers. If
201 root 1.40 you have the include file and libc support for it, it is usually a good
202     idea to enable it, as kernel availability is detected at runtime.

215 root 1.36 Another useful bit of functionality is the Linux eventfd, which is useful
216     for faster signal handling (don't care) and intra-thread communications
217     (more relevant). Kernel support for this will be probed at runtime, but
218     your libc must contain the necessary wrapper. Glibc 2.7 and later should
219     have this wrapper.

232 root 1.42 Another sometimes useful bit of functionality is the Linux signalfd, which
233     is useful for faster signal handling (don't care). Kernel support for
234     this will be probed at runtime, but your libc must contain the necessary
235     wrapper and include files. Glibc 2.9 and later should have this wrapper.
