Yes I did build with kqueue. I added the kqueue support to ptpdv2 because libbsd does not support signal type events. I found this out the hard why when getting ptpdv2 to run. I had posix timers running but libbsd threads did not wake. I chased this down to code like ... https://git.rtems.org/rtems-libbsd/tree/rtemsbsd/rtems/rtems-kernel-muteximpl.c#n45 The state set does not include signals so the kernel does not wake the thread. I discussed this with Sebastian at the time and agreed supporting signals in libbsd was a lot of work and open a range of possible issues so it was simpler to add kqueue support to ptpdv2. I also agree with Sebastian that kqueue is a better interface than select etc and we should encourage its use. I think ptpdv2 benefits from using kqueue over select and posix timers.
