Hello,
I just started using libev and I liked it very much.
Thank you for all the hard work already done.
So far I had no problems with I/O events, but I could not solve an
issue with timeouts.
I develop using Linux 2.6.9 libev 4.04. I can't upgrade the kernel
version, as it is part of a larger system.
My problem is that I could not set libev to generate 100ms timeouts.
It generates consistent timeouts around 1s, nothing less than that.
I tried on another machine with Ubuntu and a 2.6.3x kernel... but I
got the same results.
I'm passing the interval as 0.1. I read many articles about low clock
resolution, but most of them say something around 1ms... So my results
are 1000x worse.
I also tried to write a workaround using timerfd, but it does not
exist on 2.6.9 :=(
In the libev documentation it is worded: sub-second resolution time. I
was wondering that 100ms would be possible.
Any ideas? Do I have to compile with special options?
Best Regards,
Nilo Menezes
