    DESCRIPTION

    The kqueue ();
    system call provides a generic method of notifying the user when an event happens or a condition holds, based on the results of small pieces of kernel code termed filters. A kevent is identified by the (ident, filter) pair; there may only be one unique kevent per kqueue.

    The filter is executed upon the initial registration of a kevent in order to detect whether a preexisting condition is present, and is also executed whenever an event is passed to the filter for evaluation. If the filter determines that the condition should be reported, then the kevent is placed on the kqueue for the user to retrieve.

    The filter is also run when the user attempts to retrieve the kevent from the kqueue. If the filter indicates that the condition that triggered the event no longer holds, the kevent is removed from the kqueue and is not returned.

    Multiple events which trigger the filter do not result in multiple kevents being placed on the kqueue; instead, the filter will aggregate the events into a single struct kevent. Calling close ();
    on a file descriptor will remove any kevents that reference the descriptor.

    The kqueue ();
    system call creates a new kernel event queue and returns a descriptor. The queue is not inherited by a child created with fork(2). However, if rfork(2) is called without the RFFDG flag, then the descriptor table is shared, which will allow sharing of the kqueue between two processes.

    The kevent ();
    system call is used to register events with the queue, and return any pending events to the user. The Fa changelist argument is a pointer to an array of kevent structures, as defined in In sys/event.h . All changes contained in the Fa changelist are applied before any pending events are read from the queue. The Fa nchanges argument gives the size of Fa changelist . The Fa eventlist argument is a pointer to an array of kevent structures. The Fa nevents argument determines the size of Fa eventlist . When Fa nevents is zero, kevent ();
    will return immediately even if there is a Fa timeout specified unlike select(2). If Fa timeout is a non-NULL pointer, it specifies a maximum interval to wait for an event, which will be interpreted as a struct timespec. If Fa timeout is a NULL pointer, kevent ();
    waits indefinitely. To effect a poll, the Fa timeout argument should be non-NULL, pointing to a zero-valued timespec structure. The same array may be used for the Fa changelist and Fa eventlist .

    The EV_SET ();
    macro is provided for ease of initializing a kevent structure.

    The kevent structure is defined as:

    struct kevent {
            uintptr_t ident;        /* identifier for this event */
            short     filter;       /* filter for event */
            u_short   flags;        /* action flags for kqueue */
            u_int     fflags;       /* filter flag value */
            intptr_t  data;         /* filter data value */
            void      *udata;       /* opaque user data identifier */
    };
    

    The fields of Fa struct kevent are:

    ident
    Value used to identify this event. The exact interpretation is determined by the attached filter, but often is a file descriptor.
    filter
    Identifies the kernel filter used to process this event. The pre-defined system filters are described below.
    flags
    Actions to perform on the event.
    fflags
    Filter-specific flags.
    data
    Filter-specific data value.
    udata
    Opaque user-defined value passed through the kernel unchanged.

    The flags field can contain the following values:

    EV_ADD
    Adds the event to the kqueue. Re-adding an existing event will modify the parameters of the original event, and not result in a duplicate entry. Adding an event automatically enables it, unless overridden by the EV_DISABLE flag.
    EV_ENABLE
    Permit kevent ();
    to return the event if it is triggered.
    EV_DISABLE
    Disable the event so kevent ();
    will not return it. The filter itself is not disabled.
    EV_DELETE
    Removes the event from the kqueue. Events which are attached to file descriptors are automatically deleted on the last close of the descriptor.
    EV_ONESHOT
    Causes the event to return only the first occurrence of the filter being triggered. After the user retrieves the event from the kqueue, it is deleted.
    EV_CLEAR
    After the event is retrieved by the user, its state is reset. This is useful for filters which report state transitions instead of the current state. Note that some filters may automatically set this flag internally.
    EV_EOF
    Filters may set this flag to indicate filter-specific EOF condition.
    EV_ERROR
    See Sx RETURN VALUES below.

    The predefined system filters are listed below. Arguments may be passed to and from the filter via the fflags and data fields in the kevent structure.

    EVFILT_READ
    Takes a descriptor as the identifier, and returns whenever there is data available to read. The behavior of the filter is slightly different depending on the descriptor type.

    Sockets
    Sockets which have previously been passed to listen ();
    return when there is an incoming connection pending. data contains the size of the listen backlog.

    Other socket descriptors return when there is data to be read, subject to the SO_RCVLOWAT value of the socket buffer. This may be overridden with a per-filter low water mark at the time the filter is added by setting the NOTE_LOWAT flag in fflags and specifying the new low water mark in data On return, data contains the number of bytes of protocol data available to read.

    If the read direction of the socket has shutdown, then the filter also sets EV_EOF in flags and returns the socket error (if any) in fflags It is possible for EOF to be returned (indicating the connection is gone) while there is still data pending in the socket buffer.

    Vnodes
    Returns when the file pointer is not at the end of file. data contains the offset from current position to end of file, and may be negative.
    "Fifos, Pipes"
    Returns when the there is data to read; data contains the number of bytes available.

    When the last writer disconnects, the filter will set EV_EOF in flags This may be cleared by passing in EV_CLEAR, at which point the filter will resume waiting for data to become available before returning.

    "BPF devices"
    Returns when the BPF buffer is full, the BPF timeout has expired, or when the BPF has ``immediate mode'' enabled and there is any data to read; data contains the number of bytes available.

    EVFILT_WRITE
    Takes a descriptor as the identifier, and returns whenever it is possible to write to the descriptor. For sockets, pipes and fifos, data will contain the amount of space remaining in the write buffer. The filter will set EV_EOF when the reader disconnects, and for the fifo case, this may be cleared by use of EV_CLEAR. Note that this filter is not supported for vnodes or BPF devices.

    For sockets, the low water mark and socket error handling is identical to the EVFILT_READ case.

    EVFILT_AIO
    The sigevent portion of the AIO request is filled in, with sigev_notify_kqueue containing the descriptor of the kqueue that the event should be attached to, sigev_value containing the udata value, and sigev_notify set to SIGEV_KEVENT. When the aio_ (*);
    system call is made, the event will be registered with the specified kqueue, and the ident argument set to the Fa struct aiocb returned by the aio_ (*);
    system call. The filter returns under the same conditions as aio_error.
    EVFILT_VNODE
    Takes a file descriptor as the identifier and the events to watch for in fflags and returns when one or more of the requested events occurs on the descriptor. The events to monitor are:

    NOTE_DELETE
    The unlink ();
    system call was called on the file referenced by the descriptor.
    NOTE_WRITE
    A write occurred on the file referenced by the descriptor.
    NOTE_EXTEND
    The file referenced by the descriptor was extended.
    NOTE_ATTRIB
    The file referenced by the descriptor had its attributes changed.
    NOTE_LINK
    The link count on the file changed.
    NOTE_RENAME
    The file referenced by the descriptor was renamed.
    NOTE_REVOKE
    Access to the file was revoked via revoke(2) or the underlying file system was unmounted.

    On return, fflags contains the events which triggered the filter.

    EVFILT_PROC
    Takes the process ID to monitor as the identifier and the events to watch for in fflags and returns when the process performs one or more of the requested events. If a process can normally see another process, it can attach an event to it. The events to monitor are:

    NOTE_EXIT
    The process has exited. The exit status will be stored in data
    NOTE_FORK
    The process has called fork (.);
    NOTE_EXEC
    The process has executed a new process via execve(2) or similar call.
    NOTE_TRACK
    Follow a process across fork ();
    calls. The parent process will return with NOTE_TRACK set in the fflags field, while the child process will return with NOTE_CHILD set in fflags and the parent PID in data
    NOTE_TRACKERR
    This flag is returned if the system was unable to attach an event to the child process, usually due to resource limitations.

    On return, fflags contains the events which triggered the filter.

    EVFILT_SIGNAL
    Takes the signal number to monitor as the identifier and returns when the given signal is delivered to the process. This coexists with the signal ();
    and sigaction ();
    facilities, and has a lower precedence. The filter will record all attempts to deliver a signal to a process, even if the signal has been marked as SIG_IGN. Event notification happens after normal signal delivery processing. data returns the number of times the signal has occurred since the last call to kevent (.);
    This filter automatically sets the EV_CLEAR flag internally.
    EVFILT_TIMER
    Establishes an arbitrary timer identified by ident When adding a timer, data specifies the timeout period in milliseconds. The timer will be periodic unless EV_ONESHOT is specified. On return, data contains the number of times the timeout has expired since the last call to kevent (.);
    This filter automatically sets the EV_CLEAR flag internally. There is a system wide limit on the number of timers which is controlled by the kern.kq_calloutmax sysctl.
    EVFILT_NETDEV
    Takes a descriptor to a network interface as the identifier, and the events to watch for in fflags It returns, when one or more of the requested events occur on the descriptor. The events to monitor are:

    NOTE_LINKUP
    The link is up.
    NOTE_LINKDOWN
    The link is down.
    NOTE_LINKINV
    The link state is invalid.

    On return, fflags contains the events which triggered the filter.

     

    RETURN VALUES

    The kqueue ();
    system call creates a new kernel event queue and returns a file descriptor. If there was an error creating the kernel event queue, a value of -1 is returned and errno set.

    The kevent ();
    system call returns the number of events placed in the Fa eventlist , up to the value given by Fa nevents . If an error occurs while processing an element of the Fa changelist and there is enough room in the Fa eventlist , then the event will be placed in the Fa eventlist with EV_ERROR set in flags and the system error in data Otherwise, -1 will be returned, and errno will be set to indicate the error condition. If the time limit expires, then kevent ();
    returns 0.  

    ERRORS

    The kqueue ();
    system call fails if:

    Bq Er ENOMEM
    The kernel failed to allocate enough memory for the kernel queue.
    Bq Er EMFILE
    The per-process descriptor table is full.
    Bq Er ENFILE
    The system file table is full.

    The kevent ();
    system call fails if:

    Bq Er EACCES
    The process does not have permission to register a filter.
    Bq Er EFAULT
    There was an error reading or writing the kevent structure.
    Bq Er EBADF
    The specified descriptor is invalid.
    Bq Er EINTR
    A signal was delivered before the timeout expired and before any events were placed on the kqueue for return.
    Bq Er EINVAL
    The specified time limit or filter is invalid.
    Bq Er ENOENT
    The event could not be found to be modified or deleted.
    Bq Er ENOMEM
    No memory was available to register the event or, in the special case of a timer, the maximum number of timers has been exceeded. This maximum is configurable via the kern.kq_calloutmax sysctl.
    Bq Er ESRCH
    The specified process to attach to does not exist.

    BUGS

    The EVFILT_NETDEV filter is currently only implemented for devices that use the miibus(4) driver for LINKUP and LINKDOWN operations. Therefore, it will not work with many non-ethernet devices.

    The Fa timeout value is limited to 24 hours; longer timeouts will be silently reinterpreted as 24 hours.
