Hi, This is the 9th version of this patch series. Thank you, Amir, Jan and Ted, for the feedback in the previous versions. The main difference in this version is that the pool is no longer resizeable nor limited in number of marks, even though we only pre-allocate 32 slots. In addition, ext4 was modified to always return non-zero errno, and the documentation was fixed accordingly (No longer suggests we return EXT4_ERR* values. I also droped the Reviewed-by tags from the ext4 patch, due to the changes above. Please let me know what you think. This was tested with LTP for regressions and also using the sample code on the last patch, with a corrupted image. I wrote a new ltp test for this feature which is being reviewed and is available at: https://gitlab.collabora.com/krisman/ltp -b fan-fs-error In addition, I wrote a man-page that can be pulled from: https://gitlab.collabora.com/krisman/man-pages.git -b fan-fs-error And is being reviewed at the list. I also pushed this full series to: https://gitlab.collabora.com/krisman/linux -b fanotify-notifications-v8 Thank you Cc: Darrick J.
