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

54POSIX optionally offers support for a (potentially) high-resolution
55realtime clock interface. In a good implementation, using it is faster
56than the normal method of using gettimeofday. Unfortunately, this option
57is also bound to be broken on some systems, so you can disable use and
58probing of this feature altogether here. Otherwise support for this clock
59type will be autodetected at compiletime.

70EV can use various backends with various portability issue. The select
71backend is the most portable and makes for a good fallback, but it can be
72limited to a low number of file descriptors and/or might not compile. If
73you have problems with compiling ev_select.c, you might try to play around
74with disabling it here, or forcing it to use the fd_set provided by your
75OS, via the next question. I highly recommend keeping it in.
76
77EOF
78
79if (prompt ("Enable select backend (y/n)?", "y") =~ /[yY]/) {

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

107The second very portable backend is poll(2). It does not exist on windows
108and various versions of Mac OS X (and on the other versions it simply
109doesn't work), but works basically everywhere else. It is recommended to use
110the default here unless you run into compile problems in ev_poll.c.

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

138Similarly to the epoll backend above, EV can take advantage of kqueue on
139many BSD systems. Support for kqueue will be detected at runtime, with a
140safe fallback to other methods when it cannot be used.
141
142Note that kqueue is broken on most operating systems, so it defaults to
143'n' on most platforms that claim to support it. Here is what we know:
144
145OS X: completely, utterly broken on at least <= 10.5.
146FreeBSD: broken on at least <= 6.2-STABLE,
147 sockets and pipes *might* work, ptys definitely don't.
148NetBSD: reports indicate that it likely WORKS. Yeah! :)
149OpenBSD: reports indicate that it likely doesn't work
150 (similar problems as on FreeBSD).

163Similarly to the kqueue backend above, EV can take advantage of the
164solaris 10 port interface. Support for port will be detected at runtime,
165with a safe fallback to other methods when it cannot be used.

176EV needs the functions pthread_atfork and clock_gettime. On most systems
177you need some special libraries for this (such as -lrt and -lpthread). You
178can specify additional libraries to provide these calls (and any other
179required by EV) now, or accept the default.
