# Linux: epoll(7) is the default, since it scales well.
#
# macOS: poll(2) is not exposed by Python because it doesn't support all
# file descriptors (in particular, lack of PTY support is a problem) --
# see <http://bugs.python.org/issue5154>. kqueue has the same restrictions
# as poll(2) as far PTY support goes.
#
# Windows: IOCP should eventually be default, but still has some serious
# bugs, e.g. <http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/4667>.
#
# We therefore choose epoll(7) on Linux, poll(2) on other non-macOS POSIX
# platforms, and select(2) everywhere else.
