Example TCP server that uses kqueue(2)

This is a bare minimum TCP server that can be used to learn how kqueue(2) works. The code contains comments on what each section of code does.

The example in tcpserver_kqueue_callback.c contains a two functions which are executed once data can be read from a client connection.

Run

make event-loop

./tcpserver_kqueue

Now connect to the server at port 1815. For instance, using netcat:

nc -v localhost 1815

Run callback example

make event-loop-callback

./tcpserver_kqueue_callback

Now connect to the server at port 1816. For instance, using netcat as is presented in the section above
