libevent - an asynchronous event library download

Libevent is hosted at https://github.com/libevent/libevent . Go there instead of here.

The libevent API provides a mechanism to execute a callback function when a specific event occurs on a file descriptor or after a timeout has been reached. It is meant to replace the asynchronous event loop found in event-driven network servers.
