25 Welcome to EV configuration. If you are in a hurry, just press return here
26 and hope for the best. The defaults should usually do.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

163 EV needs the functions pthread_atfork and clock_gettime. On most systems
164 you need some special libraries for this (such as -lrt and -lpthread). You
165 can specify additional libraries to provide these calls now, or accept the
166 default.
