44 root 1.14 POSIX optionally offers support for a monotonic clock source. EV
45 root 1.45 can take advantage of this clock source to detect time jumps more
46 root 1.14 reliably. Unfortunately, some systems are bound to be broken, so you can
47     disable this here: you can completely disable the detection and use of
48     the monotonic clock by answering 'n' here. Support for this clock type
49 root 1.29 will otherwise be autodetected at both compile- and runtime. (this setting
50     currently affects the use of nanosleep over select as well).

63     POSIX optionally offers support for a (potentially) high-resolution
64     realtime clock interface. In a good implementation, using it is faster
65     than the normal method of using gettimeofday. Unfortunately, this option
66 root 1.39 is also bound to be broken on some systems, and current EV versions do not
67 root 1.45 actually call gettimeofday very often, so it defaults to no.

78 root 1.46 EV can use various backends with various portability issues. The select
79 root 1.19 backend is the most portable and makes for a good fallback, but it can be
80 root 1.22 limited to a low number of file descriptors and/or might not compile. If
81     you have problems with compiling ev_select.c, you might try to play around
82 root 1.19 with disabling it here, or forcing it to use the fd_set provided by your
83     OS, via the next question. I highly recommend keeping it in.

94    
95     The select backend can operate in two modes. One uses the system-provided
96     fd_set and is usually limited to 1024 file descriptors (64 on windows),
97     the other requires your header files to define NFDBITS and declare a
98     suitable fd_mask type. If you run into problems compiling ev_select.c, you
99     can try forcing the use of the system fd_set here.
100

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

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

146 root 1.15
147    
148 root 1.58 Linux 4.18 introduced another event polling interface, this time using
149     the Linux AIO API. While this API is far superior to epoll and almost
150     rivals kqueue, it also suffers from the same issues as kqueue typically
151     does: only a subset of file types are supported (as of 4.19, I have seen
152     eventfd, pipes, sockets files and some devices, but no ttys). It also
153     is subject arbitrary system-wide limits imposed on it. Therefore, this
154     backend is not used by default, even when it is compiled in, and you have
155     to request it explicitly, e.g. with LIBEV_FLAGS=64. If unsure, accept the
156     default.

169 root 1.23 Similarly to the epoll backend above, EV can take advantage of kqueue on
170     many BSD systems. Support for kqueue will be detected at runtime, with a
171     safe fallback to other methods when it cannot be used.
172    
173 root 1.31 Note that kqueue is broken on most operating systems, so by default it
174     won't be used on many platforms, but you can still create your own event
175 root 1.40 loop with kqueue backend if you ask specifically for it.
176 root 1.31
177     Here is what we know:
178 root 1.23
179 root 1.45 NetBSD: partially working in at least 3.1 and later. Yeah! :)
180     FreeBSD: broken on at least 6.2-STABLE, spotty in later versions,
181 root 1.28 sockets *likely* work, ptys definitely don't.
182 root 1.23 OpenBSD: reports indicate that it likely doesn't work
183     (similar problems as on FreeBSD).
184 root 1.45 OS X: completely, utterly broken on at least <= 10.6.

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

210 root 1.11 EV needs the functions pthread_atfork and clock_gettime. On most systems
211 root 1.15 you need some special libraries for this (such as -lrt and -lpthread). You
212 root 1.23 can specify additional libraries to provide these calls (and any other
213     required by EV) now, or accept the default.
214 root 1.11
215 root 1.53 On GNU/Linux systems, EV uses the LSB 3.1 __register_atfork function
216     to avoid the dependency on libpthread, and directly uses the clock_gettime
217     syscall to avoid a dependency on librt.

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

248 root 1.36 Another useful bit of functionality is the Linux eventfd, which is useful
249     for faster signal handling (don't care) and intra-thread communications
250     (more relevant). Kernel support for this will be probed at runtime, but

281 root 1.48 Very rarely, people want to tweak EV even more, e.g. to exclude
282 root 1.52 or include certain watcher types or backends. This can be done by adding
283 root 1.48 extra -D options here, or via the EV_EXTRA_DEFS environment variable.
284 root 1.52
285     For example, if you run into compile problems because of missing memory
