Hi all,
I recently found kevents as an interesting alternative to the wacky
polling which I do in some of my code. It seems that kevents (or kernel
events) is a relatively newer addition to Linux especially considering
the fact that its been there in the BSD kernel for a while.

I googled around and found this lwn article,
http://lwn.net/Articles/172844/

But thats where the problem starts. Given the super-n00b I am, I
couldn't really grasp it and hence, would gladly treat someone with
maggi if he/she could point me to some code which uses these to good
effect.

Also, are there any good books which I should be looking at?

Thanks and Regards
