libuEv is a simple event loop in the style of the more established libevent, libev and the venerable Xt(3) event loop. The u (micro) in the name refers to both the small feature set and the small size overhead impact of the library. . Experienced developers may appreciate that libuEv is built on top of modern Linux APIs: epoll, timerfd and signalfd. Note however, a certain amount of care is needed when dealing with APIs that employ signalfd. Libuev is required for net-ftp/uftpd (see bug #639564).
