39 POSIX optionally offers support for a monotonic clock source. EV
40 can take advantage of this clock source to detect time jumps more
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. (this setting
45 currently affects the use of nanosleep over select as well).

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

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

87
88 The select backend can operate in two modes. One uses the system-provided
89 fd_set and is usually limited to 1024 file descriptors (64 on windows),
90 the other requires your header files to define NFDBITS and declare a
91 suitable fd_mask type. If you run into problems compiling ev_select.c, you
92 can try forcing the use of the system fd_set here.

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

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

141 Similarly to the epoll backend above, EV can take advantage of kqueue on
142 many BSD systems. Support for kqueue will be detected at runtime, with a
143 safe fallback to other methods when it cannot be used.
144
145 Note that kqueue is broken on most operating systems, so by default it
146 won't be used on many platforms, but you can still create your own event
147 loop with kqueue backend if you ask specifically for it.
148
149 Here is what we know:
150
151 NetBSD: partially working in at least 3.1 and later. Yeah! :)
152 FreeBSD: broken on at least 6.2-STABLE, spotty in later versions,
153 sockets *likely* work, ptys definitely don't.
154 OpenBSD: reports indicate that it likely doesn't work
155 (similar problems as on FreeBSD).
156 OS X: completely, utterly broken on at least <= 10.6.

169 Similarly to the kqueue backend above, EV can take advantage of the
170 solaris 10 event port interface. Support for event ports will be detected
171 at runtime, with a safe fallback to other methods when it cannot be used.
172

182 EV needs the functions pthread_atfork and clock_gettime. On most systems
183 you need some special libraries for this (such as -lrt and -lpthread). You
184 can specify additional libraries to provide these calls (and any other
185 required by EV) now, or accept the default.
186
187 On GNU/Linux systems, EV uses the LSB 3.1 __register_atfork function
188 to avoid the dependency on libpthread, and directly uses the clock_gettime
189 syscall to avoid a dependency on librt.

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

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

253 Very rarely, people want to tweak EV even more, e.g. to exclude
254 or include certain watcher types or backends. This can be done by adding
255 extra -D options here, or via the EV_EXTRA_DEFS environment variable.
256
257 For example, if you run into compile problems because of missing memory
258 fences (or you just want extra performance), you can tell EV to not support
259 smp and threads via -DEV_NO_THREADS.
260
261 Normal persons just press enter.
