Undeclared function 'eventfd error in socketpair

[Abhinav Singhal via curl-library]

Hi,

I currently have curl 8.7 installed (built with openssl) and I’m trying to
upgrade to 8.12.1. However, I’m running into the following error:



../../../../../distro/lib/socketpair.c:37:13: error: call to undeclared
function 'eventfd'; ISO C99 and later do not support implicit function
declarations [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]

   37 |   int efd = eventfd(0, nonblocking ? EFD_CLOEXEC | EFD_NONBLOCK :
EFD_CLOEXEC);

      |             ^

../../../../../distro/lib/socketpair.c:37:38: error: use of undeclared
identifier 'EFD_CLOEXEC'

On further investigation, I found that the following change was introduced
with curl release 8.11.1, which is most likely the cause of the above
failure:

socketpair: fix enabling `USE_EVENTFD` [30]





The following are the libcurl flags in my configuration:

--disable-dict

--disable-ech

--disable-gopher

--disable-headers-api

--disable-hsts

--disable-imap

--disable-mime

--without-nghttp3

--without-ngtcp2

--without-openssl-quic

--without-quiche

--without-winidn

How may I get past this issue? Should I enable some of the above components
in order to get past the compilation errors?

Thanks.
