Indesiciveness has certainly been an issue here, but I remember akpm
and Ulrich both giving concrete suggestions.  I was particularly
interested in Andrew's request to explain and justify the differences
between kevent and BSD's kqueue interface.  Was there a discussion
that I missed?  I am very interested to see your work on this
mechanism merged, because you've clearly emphasized performance and
shown impressive results.  But it seems like we lose out on a lot by
throwing out all the applications that already use kqueue.


kqueue looks pretty nice, the filter/note models in particular. I don't see anything about ring buffers though.

I also wonder about the asynchronous event side (send), not just the event reception side.
