""" :module: watchdog.observers.kqueue :synopsis: ``kqueue(2)`` based emitter implementation. :author: yesudeep@google.com (Yesudeep Mangalapilly) :platforms: Mac OS X and BSD with kqueue(2). .. WARNING:: kqueue is a very heavyweight way to monitor file systems. Each kqueue-detected directory modification triggers a full directory scan. Traversing the entire directory tree and opening file descriptors for all files will create performance problems. We need to find a way to re-scan only those directories which report changes and do a diff between two sub-DirectorySnapshots perhaps. .. ADMONITION:: About ``select.kqueue`` and Python versions * Python 2.5 does not ship with ``select.kqueue`` * Python 2.6 ships with a broken ``select.kqueue`` that cannot take multiple events in the event list passed to ``kqueue.control``. * Python 2.7 ships with a working ``select.kqueue`` implementation. I have backported the Python 2.7 implementation to Python 2.5 and 2.6 in the ``select_backport`` package available on PyPI. .. ADMONITION:: About OS X performance guidelines Quote from the `Mac OS X File System Performance Guidelines`_: "When you only want to track changes on a file or directory, be sure to open it using the ``O_EVTONLY`` flag. This flag prevents the file or directory from being marked as open or in use. This is important if you are tracking files on a removable volume and the user tries to unmount the volume. With this flag in place, the system knows it can dismiss the volume. If you had opened the files or directories without this flag, the volume would be marked as busy and would not be unmounted." ``O_EVTONLY`` is defined as ``0x8000`` in the OS X header files.
