Turns out FreeBSD supports evdev, so this toll can work on it; however it does not support epoll, so switch to poll, which is portable. Reported-by: Evgeniy Khramtsov <evgeniy@khramtsov.org> Signed-off-by: Ran Benita <ran@unusedvar.com>

btw, there's an epoll shim for BSD, see libinput's meson.build. We've had this for a while and I have yet to see complaints about it, so let's assume it works :) |

Right, Evgeniy sent a patch by mail which does that, but I suggested just using poll instead. |
