KQueue transport
The new 4.1.11.Final release contains a native transport for kqueue which you may want to check out. This transport also supports Unix Domain Sockets, just as the native epoll transport does.
For more details please check the apidocs and our tests.
Important note
This release also fixes a regression when using SslProvider.OPENSSL and SslProvider.OPENSSL_REFCNT that was introduced in 4.0.46.Final / 4.1.10.Final so we strongly encourage you to upgrade if you are using one of these releases and want to make use of the native SSLEngine implementation.
