kqueue?

So, has anyone looked at kqueue as an alternative to select/poll?

Cheers,

Ben.

Only superficially. I have a copy of thttpd on my hdd that has been
hacked Kris Kennaway to use kqueue which I have been meaning to look
at more closely.

I'm into Jonathan Lemon's paper now. Looks very similar to nt's async i/o
model. A kqueue looks a lot like an nt i/o completion port.

BTW, I am working an an apr async i/o api and home life permitting, should
have a first cut in a couple of weeks. I need to survey all the available
async i/o techniques to make sure the apr api is general enough (hopefully w/o
being too complicated).

Nope.  :-)  this is FreeBSD specific, but it looks (after a 2 second
glance) that it could be used behind the APR interface very cleanly.

Very cool.
