199A backend of a different kind is the Linux inotify(7) interface, which can
200be used to speed up (and reduce resource consumption) of stat watchers. If

214Another useful bit of functionality is the Linux eventfd, which is useful
215for faster signal handling (don't care) and intra-thread communications
216(more relevant). Kernel support for this will be probed at runtime, but
217your libc must contain the necessary wrapper. Glibc 2.7 and later should
218have this wrapper.
