[PATCH v5 0/6] fsmonitor: Implement fsmonitor for Linux

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Goal is to deliver fsmonitor for Linux that is on par with fsmonitor for
Windows and Mac OS.

This patch set builds upon previous work for done for Windows and Mac OS to
implement a fsmonitor back-end for Linux based on the Linux inotify API.
inotify differs significantly from the equivalent Windows and Mac OS APIs in
that a watch must be registered for every directory of interest (rather than
a singular watch at the root of the directory tree) and special care must be
taken to handle directory renames correctly.

More information about inotify:
https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/inotify.7.html

v4 differs from v3:

 * Code review feedback

v3 differs from v2:

 * Avoid potential entanglements with GPLv3
 * Classify a reasonable set of filesystems as being remote

v2 differs from v1:

 * Prior work for Windows and Mac OS has been merged to master, reducing the
   patch set from 12 to 6 patches
 * Code review feedback
 * Identified and resolved race condition revealed by CI test system, see
   "Limitations and caveats" regarding monitoring of directory trees from
   the man page, above
 * Apologies for being away from this for so long, but my attention was
   needed elsewhere

v1 differs from v0:

 * Code review feedback
 * Update how and which code can be shared between Mac OS and Linux
 * Increase polling frequency to every 1ms (matches Mac OS)
 * Updates to t7527 to improve test stability
