micropython on OSX

Hi,

I managed to compile and run unix micropython version on OSX for simple usage.
Now then trying to use more advanced feature like asyncio I'm failing because micropython uses epoll select while OSX uses kqueue. I'm not an expert with this technolohy but that's what I understood. Therefore I guess supporting micropython on OSX will require a lot of work to implement kqueue selector.
Not sure I want to deep in this...
Have some of you ever tried this or have an idea of the kind of job this means ?

For now I'll use a Linux VM for running microypthon ...

I've already started to develop implementation using standard POSIX poll(), see https://github.com/micropython/micropyt ... -156486488 .

Hi,

would kqueue be useful for micropython boards or would it only be useful for OSX support ?
