Moreover pipe emulation is not completely transparent - it introduces 2 fd's not 1 as eventfd. So it can be a separate code (in the library), but not behind ExtUnix.eventfd. > Here are some more calls I frequently miss: > > ssize_t pread(int fd, void *buf, size_t count, off_t offset); > ssize_t pwrite(int fd, const void *buf, size_t count, off_t offset); > > And read, write, pread, pwrite with Bigarray instead of string for > zero-copy operations or buffers >16MB on 32bit platforms. Yes, I have these on the TODO list.

I am personally pretty satisfied with libevent, but again, if anybody contributes epoll bindings - it is absolutely welcome. -- ygrek http://ygrek.org.ua/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
