[RFC PATCH] inotify: add support watch open exec event

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

 



Now the IN_OPEN event can report all open events for a file, but it can
not distinguish if the file was opened for execute or read/write.
This patch add a new event IN_OPEN_EXEC to support that. If user only
want to monitor a file was opened for execute, they can pass a more
precise event IN_OPEN_EXEC to inotify_add_watch.
