Motivation: epoll_wait accepts a timeout argument which will specify the maximum amount of time the epoll_wait will wait for an event to occur. If the epoll_wait method returns for any reason that is not fatal (e.g. EINTR) the original timeout value is re-used. This does not honor the timeout interface contract and can lead to unbounded time in epoll_wait. Modifications: - The time taken by epoll_wait should be decremented before calling epoll_wait again, and if the remaining time is exhausted we should return 0 according to the epoll_wait interface docs http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/epoll_wait.2.html - link librt which is needed for some platforms to use clock_gettime Result: epoll_wait will wait for at most timeout ms according to the epoll_wait interface contract. |

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable Oracle JDK 7
- Latest stable Apache Maven
- If you are on Linux, you need additional development packages installed on your system, because you'll build the native transport.
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
Development of all versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>
. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.0 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.0' respectively.
