I have some patches for the FreeBSD kevent code to add "touch" filter hooks, EVFILT_USER, NOTE_TRIGGER, and EV_DISPATCH that I'll send your way to review. I have looked at EV_RECEIPT briefly and I am not sure how useful or necessary it is for this port. Maybe someone could comment on that.
EV_RECEIPT is useful to disambiguating error conditions when multiple structures are passed to kevent(2); or to disambiguate error conditions in kevent(2) itself and the action requested (for example EBADF may refer to either the kqueue file descriptor or the file descriptor to monitor). Kevin
