Could you recommend some guides about Epoll on Linux [closed]

I need to know about Epoll On linux System.

Could you recommend manual or guides about epoll library?

need more detailed guides. it's better to have some examples.

help me. and Thank you for reading.

Solution 1:

Here's an introduction to Epoll, a pretty basic tutorial: http://blog.kovyrin.net/2006/04/13/epoll-asynchronous-network-programming/

A more complete example can be found here: https://banu.com/blog/2/how-to-use-epoll-a-complete-example-in-c/

Also, the man pages

Solution 2:

#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <sys/epoll.h>

I wrote this program for testing and I was able to connect more than 80k connections and I find average system load only to 0.27%.
