Hi

Are there any plans to introduce an epoll patch mentioned by Alexandre
in this issue to the upstream:
https://github.com/acassen/keepalived/issues/307#issuecomment-215637508?

We were using a pretty old fork of the keepalived (1.2.19) with some
custom patches in our production environment for a while now and would
like to update our tree and contribute said patches. Sadly
more or less major ones

using epoll in scheduler
storing io waiting thread in rbtree (both written by Alexey Andrianov)
running TCP/HTTP[S] checkers in multiple threads

certainly would conflict with the existing patch.

Best regards,
Fedor Zhukov
