William Fisher added the comment: In the conversion to PY_CHECK_FUNC, there's a mistake in HAVE_EPOLL. Python 3.10.1 defines HAVE_EPOLL by checking for the `epoll_create` function. Python 3.11.0a3 checks for the `epoll` function instead. There is no epoll() function so this always fails.

Christian Heimes added the comment: The first PR adds helper macros, AC_CACHE_CHECK() [1] and AS_VAR_IF() [2]. It also unified internal variables to use format "ac_cv_func_$funcname", "ac_cv_func_lib_$library_$funcname", or "ac_cv_header_$headername_h". "ac_cv" stands for autoconf cached

[issue45723] Improve and simplify configure.ac checks

New submission from Christian Heimes : The autoconf-based build system has room for improvements. The configure.ac script can be simplified in several places by using AS and AC macros or by defining new custom macros. For example we have a lot of blocks that look like this:
