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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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