and the maintainer of kqueue.. :)

The patch looks fine, but it's missing the updates to kqueue(2) to
describe what the new flags do...

Also, it would be good to see updates to tools/regression/kqueue/timer.c
to support the additional flags to make sure that they don't break in
the future...

P.S. Adrian, you still need to do some kqueue(2) updates yourself. :)
