it seems that ifb counts packets twice... both at xmit time and also in
the tasklet. i'm not sure which one of the two to drop, but here's a
patch for dropping the counting at xmit time.
patch against 2.6.20-rc1.

Good catch but not quite right. The correct way to

Timer notifications.
Timer notifications can be used for fine grained per-process time
management, since interval timers are very inconvenient to use,
and they are limited.
This subsystem uses high-resolution timers.
id.raw[0] is used as number of seconds
id.raw[1] is used as number of
Signal notifications.
This type of notifications allows to deliver signals through kevent queue.
One can find example application signal.c on project homepage.
If KEVENT_SIGNAL_NOMASK bit is set in raw_u64 id then signal will be
delivered only through queue, otherwise both delivery types are
Socket notifications.
This patch includes socket send/recv/accept notifications.
Using trivial web server based on kevent and this features
instead of epoll it's performance increased more than noticebly.
More details about various benchmarks and server itself
(evserver_kevent.c) can be found
poll/select() notifications.
This patch includes generic poll/select notifications.
kevent_poll works simialr to epoll and has the same issues (callback
is invoked not from internal state machine of the caller, but through
process awake, a lot of allocations and so on).

Simple extensions to POSIX timers which allows
to deliver notification of the timer expiration
through kevent queue.
Example application posix_timer.c can be found

Generic event handling mechanism.
Kevent is a generic subsytem which allows to handle event notifications.
It supports both level and edge triggered events. It is similar to
poll/epoll in some cases, but it is more scalable, it is faster and
allows to work with essentially eny kind of events.
