Linux epoll implementation

Hi;

I'm trying to compile this epoll implementation into the kernel
following

https://wiki.freebsd.org/linux-kernel

using the patch provided.

The patch applies fine but when compiling the kernel, it stops at this:

/usr/src/sys/modules/linux/../../compat/linux/linux_epoll.c:66:10:
error: implicit declaration of function 'kqueue' is invalid in C99
[-Werror,-Wimplicit-function-declaration] 
return (kqueue(td, &k_args));


That is the only reference to kqueue on the
patched code at /usr/src/sys/compat/linux/

This kqueue call is very different from the one provided in man kqueue:

int kqueue(void);

so I really ran out of options on finding out what this kqueue call
really is about.

Would anyone have any pointers on this?

Thanks.
