+/**
+ * @defgroup eventloop Main Event Loop module
+ *
+ * This main event loop module drives the packet processing of OpenVPN.
+ *
+ * OpenVPN is an event driven system.  Its activities are driven by a main
+ * event loop, which repeatedly waits for one of several predefined events
+ * to occur, and then calls the appropriate module to handle the event.
+ * The major types of network events that OpenVPN processes are:
+ * - A packet can be read from the external network interface.
+ *   - The main event loop activates the \link external_multiplexer
+ *     External Multiplexer\endlink to read and process the packet.
+ * - A packet can be read from the virtual tun/tap network interface.
+ *   - The main event loop activates the \link internal_multiplexer
+ *     Internal Multiplexer\endlink to read and process the packet.
+ * - If a packet is ready to be sent out as a VPN tunnel packet: the
+ *   external network interface can be written to.
+ *   - The main event loop activates the \link external_multiplexer
+ *     External Multiplexer\endlink to send the packet.
+ * - If a packet is ready to be sent to a locally reachable destination:
+ *   the virtual tun/tap network interface can be written to.
+ *   - The main event loop activates the \link internal_multiplexer
+ *     Internal Multiplexer\endlink to send the packet.
+ *
+ * Beside these external events, OpenVPN also processes other types of
+ * internal events.  These include scheduled events, such as resending of
+ * non-acknowledged control channel messages.
+ *
+ * @par Main event loop implementations
+ *
+ * Depending on the mode in which OpenVPN is running, a different main
+ * event loop function is called to drive the event processing.  The
+ * following implementations are available:
+ * - Client mode using UDP or TCP: \c tunnel_point_to_point()
+ * - Server mode using UDP: \c tunnel_server_udp_single_threaded()
+ * - Server mode using TCP: \c tunnel_server_tcp()
