Review request for Asterisk Developers.


Changes
-------

If EVFLT_USER isn't available, fallback to EVFLT_READ against a file descriptor from a closed pipe to keep a kqueue timer continuously active.


Bugs: ASTERISK-24857
    https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-24857


Repository: Asterisk


Description
-------

Update the kqueue timing module to conform to current timer API.

This fixes issues with using the kqueue timing source on Asterisk 13
on FreeBSD 10.

res_timing_kqueue.c:
	Remove support for kevent64().  The values used to support Asterisk
	timers fit within 32bits and so can be handled on all platforms via
	kevent().

	Provide debug logging for, but do not track, unacked events.  This
	matches the behavior of all other timer implementations.

	Implement continuous mode by triggering and leaving active, a user
	event.  This ensures that the file descriptor for the timer returns
	immediately from poll(), without placing the load of a high speed
	timer on the kernel.

	In kqueue_timer_get_max_rate(), don't overstate the capability of
	the timer.  On some platforms, UINT_MAX is greater than INTPTR_MAX,
	the largest integer type kqueue supports for timers.

	In kqueue_timer_get_event(), assume the caller woke up from poll()
	and just return the mode the timer is currently in.  This matches
	all other timer implementations.

	Adjust the test code now that unacked events are not tracked.

Testing
-------

Asterisk 13.2.0 on FreeBSD 10-stable: "timing test", pjsip incoming/outgoing calls, voicemail prompts and recordings.  All of the above failed without these changes.


Thanks,
