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

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

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

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

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

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

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

170Similarly to the epoll backend above, EV can take advantage of kqueue on
171many BSD systems. Support for kqueue will be detected at runtime, with a
172safe fallback to other methods when it cannot be used.
173
174Note that kqueue is broken on most operating systems, so by default it
175won't be used on many platforms, but you can still create your own event
176loop with kqueue backend if you ask specifically for it.
177
178Here is what we know:
179
180NetBSD: partially working in at least 3.1 and later. Yeah! :)
181FreeBSD: broken on at least 6.2-STABLE, spotty in later versions,
182 sockets *likely* work, ptys definitely don't.
183OpenBSD: reports indicate that it likely doesn't work
184 (similar problems as on FreeBSD).
185OS X: completely, utterly broken on at least <= 10.6.

198Similarly to the kqueue backend above, EV can take advantage of the
199solaris 10 event port interface. Support for event ports will be detected
200at runtime, with a safe fallback to other methods when it cannot be used.
201
202EOF

211EV needs the functions pthread_atfork and clock_gettime. On most systems
212you need some special libraries for this (such as -lrt and -lpthread). You
213can specify additional libraries to provide these calls (and any other
214required by EV) now, or accept the default.
215
216On GNU/Linux systems, EV uses the LSB 3.1 __register_atfork function
217to avoid the dependency on libpthread, and directly uses the clock_gettime
218syscall to avoid a dependency on librt.
219

233A backend of a different kind is the Linux inotify(7) interface, which can
234be used to speed up (and reduce resource consumption) of stat watchers. If
235you have the include file and libc support for it, it is usually a good
236idea to enable it, as kernel availability is detected at runtime.

249Another useful bit of functionality is the Linux eventfd, which is useful
250for faster signal handling (don't care) and intra-thread communications
251(more relevant). Kernel support for this will be probed at runtime, but
252your libc must contain the necessary wrapper. Glibc 2.7 and later should
253have this wrapper.

282Very rarely, people want to tweak EV even more, e.g. to exclude
283or include certain watcher types or backends. This can be done by adding
284extra -D options here, or via the EV_EXTRA_DEFS environment variable.
285
286For example, if you run into compile problems because of missing memory
287fences (or you just want extra performance), you can tell EV to not support
288smp and threads via -DEV_NO_THREADS.
289
290Normal persons just press enter.
