Reiter" To: freebsd-arch@FreeBSD.org Subject: libevent & fbsd Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-arch@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hey, Im doing some -audit work and Im about to start writing some patches to change alot of the select(2) calls to use k{queue,event}(). Niels Provos has started writing (or has semi-finished a release, afaik) of his libevent code. Basically it's a general interface to multiple types of event handling code (select(), poll(), kqueue/event) on file descriptors. I am interested in using something like this, possibly, instead of hacking through some of the code and moving kqueue/event into them. I am wondering if anyone has spoken to Niels about perhaps getting it into our tree? or if anyone has any thoughts on this at all? :-) The url for the code is: http://www.monkey.org/~provos/libevent/ Thanks, Andrew *-------------................................................. | Andrew R.
