4WISH? monotonic clocks times/GetTickCount for coarse corrections? 5 - further optimise away the EPOLL_CTL_ADD/MOD combo in the epoll
6 backend by assuming the kernel event mask hasn't changed if
7 ADD fails with EEXIST.
8 - work around spurious event notification bugs in epoll by using
9 a 32-bit generation counter. recreate kernel state if we receive
10 spurious notifications or unwanted events. this is very costly,
11 but I didn't come up with this horrible design.
12 - use memset to initialise most arrays now and do away with the
13 init functions.
14 - expand time-out strategies into a "Be smart about timeouts" section.
15 - drop the "struct" from all ev_watcher declarations in the
16 documentation and did other clarifications (yeah, it was a mistake
17 to have a struct AND a function called ev_loop).
18 - fix a bug where ev_default would not initialise the default
19 loop again after it was destroyed with ev_default_destroy.
20 - rename syserr to ev_syserr to avoid name clashes when embedding,
21 do similar changes for event.c.
