NAME

Linux::Event - Front door for the Linux::Event ecosystem

SYNOPSIS

use v5.36;
use Linux::Event;

my $loop = Linux::Event->new( backend => 'epoll' );

# Timers use seconds (float allowed)
$loop->after(0.100, sub ($loop) {
  say "tick";
  $loop->stop;
});

$loop->run;

DESCRIPTION

Linux::Event is a Linux-focused event loop ecosystem. This distribution currently provides:

• Linux::Event::Loop - policy layer: clock + scheduling + timer rearm

• Linux::Event::Backend - backend boundary

• Linux::Event::Backend::Epoll - epoll mechanism backend

• Linux::Event::Scheduler - deadline scheduler (nanoseconds internally)

• Linux::Event::Watcher - mutable watcher handle returned by the loop

This is an early development release.

STATUS

EXPERIMENTAL / WORK IN PROGRESS

The API is not yet considered stable and may change without notice. This release is intended for early testing and feedback and is not recommended for production use.
