[PATCH v2 2/9] fanotify: define the structures to report a unique file identifier

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

 



When user requests the flag FAN_REPORT_FID in fanotify_init(),
a unique file indetifier of the event target object will be reported
with the event.

This commit only defines the internal and user visible structures used
to store and report the unique file identifier.

The file identifier includes the filesystem's fsid (i.e. from statfs(2))
and an NFS file handle of the file (i.e. from name_to_handle_at(2)).

The file identifier makes holding the path reference and passing a file
descriptor to user redundant, so those are disabled in a group with
FAN_REPORT_FID.
