If you're using the latest rpm from rawhide, it's pulling from the
latest version in the kernel.org tree, so yes.

Hmm, odd. Can you send your test program ?

It's even in FC4. It was merged in 2.6.14

I'm just trying to learn inotify(), so I'm sure this code has other
problems, but this
is what I'm trying now that results in the errors.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
#include <sys/inotify.h>
#include <sys/select.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int fd, wd, ret, sel;
#define BUF_LEN 1024
char buf[BUF_LEN];
size_t len;
fd_set set[2];
fd = inotify_init();
FD_SET(fd, set);
wd = inotify_add_watch(fd, "/home/ellson/hello.dot", IN_MODIFY |
IN_DELETE);
while (true) {
sel = select(1, set, NULL, NULL, NULL);
len = read(fd, buf, BUF_LEN);
fprintf(stderr, "I woke up\n");
}
ret = inotify_rm_watch(fd, wd);
}
