fanotify and network/cluster fs

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

 



With the recent changes to fanotify (e.g.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=7cea2a3c505e)
has there been any additional discussion of what it would take to
allow fanotify to be supported for network/cluster fs (all major
dialects supported by cifs.ko support sending notify requests to the
server - but there is no way for cifs.ko to be told which notify
requests to send as fanotify/inotify are local only in current Linux -
unlike other OS where notify is primarily for network fs and passed
down to the fs)
