78you have problems with compiling ev_select., you might try to play around
79with disabling it here, or forcing it to use the fd_set provided by your
80OS, via the next question. I highly recommend keeping it in.

89EV needs the functions pthread_atfork and clock_gettime. On most systems 92The select backend can operate in two modes. One uses the system-provided

91specify additional libraries to provide these calls now, or accept the default. 94the other requires your header files to define NFDBITS and declare a
95suitable fd_mask type. If you run into problems compiling ev_select.c, you
96can try forcing the use of the system fd_set here.

110The second very portable backend is poll(2). It does not exist on windows
111and various versions of Mac OS X (and on the other versions it simply
112doesn't work), but works basically everywhere else. It is recommended to use
113the default here unless you run into compile problems in ev_poll.c.

126EV by default uses select, which makes it hard to write efficient servers,
127especially if the number of active conencitons is much lower than the open
128ones. GNU/Linux systems have a more scalable method called "epoll", which
129EV can use. For this to work, both your kernel and glibc have to support
130epoll, but if you can compile it, the detection will be done at runtime,
131and EV will safely fall back to using select when epoll isn't available.
132If unsure, accept the default.

145Similarly to the epoll backend above, EV can take advantage of kqueue
146on many BSD systems (it seems to be broken on Mac OS X though, but what
147isn't broken on that shoddy platform... ah yes, the cash gushing by apple,
148selling defective software works perfectly there). Support for kqueue will
149be detected at runtime, with a safe fallback to other methods when it
150cannot be used.

163EV needs the functions pthread_atfork and clock_gettime. On most systems
164you need some special libraries for this (such as -lrt and -lpthread). You
