[PATCH v3 7/7] fanotify: report events "on child" with name info to sb/mount marks

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

 



With fanotify_init() flags FAN_REPORT_FID_NAME, when adding an inode
mark with FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD, events are reported with fid of the parent
and the name of the child entry.

When adding a filesystem or mount mark, report events that are "possible
on child" (e.g. open/close) in two flavors, one with just the child fid
and one also with the parent fid and the child entry name, as if all
directories are interested in events "on child".

The flag FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD was always ignored for sb/mount mark, so we
can safely ignore the value of the flag passed by the user and set the
flag in sb/mount mark mask depending on the FAN_REPORT_NAME group flag.
