419 | Instead of calling \f(CW\*(C`ev_default_fork\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`ev_loop_fork\*(C'\fR manually after |
|

420 | a fork, you can also make libev check for a fork in each iteration by |
|
|
421 | enabling this flag. |

422 | .Sp |
|
|
423 | This works by calling \f(CW\*(C`getpid ()\*(C'\fR on every iteration of the loop, |

|
|
425 | iterations and little real work, but is usually not noticeable (on my |
