I'm not seeing an obvious problem with that code, assuming that server::serv_sock_accept_pattern has the right signature and is declared as 'cdecl' if that's necessary. If you're doing anything unusual with threads, that could account for a socket appearing readable but having nothing to accept when you look at it .. but you probably would have thought of that. A few possibly-not-too-helpful thoughts I have for debugging: 1) use strace or truss or whatever the best FreeBSD syscall logging tool is to see what exactly is going on with the fd in question. Are there weird syscalls happening to it? Is something calling accept() twice somehow? 2) If you're multithreaded, make sure that you've enabled all the locking stuff that you need in libevent. 3) If you haven't done so already, use helgrind and valgrind to look for whether some kind of fishy corruption might be going on. 4) Try to come up with a minimal program and/or testing environment to reproduce the failing case. 5) If it's not too hard, try dropping in evconnlistener in place of your current listen/accept logic and see if the problem persists. If not, it's likely an issue in your code somewhere. 6) If you're using any awesome freebsd features like accept filters that might affect this code path, try turning them off to see whether that helps. I hope one of those ideas is helpful.
