Motiviation: If sendmmsg is already defined then the native epoll module failed to build because of conflicting definitions. The mmsghdr type was also redefined on systems that already supported this structure. Modifications: Provide a way so that systems which already define sendmmsg and mmsghdr can build Provide a way so that systems which don't define sendmmsg and mmsghdr can build Result: The native EPOLL module can build in more environments

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
The 'master' branch is where the development of the latest major version lives on. The development of all other major versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to its major version number. For example, the development of 3.x and 4.x resides in the branch '3' and the branch '4' respectively.
