Since kernel v5.1, fanotify_init(2) supports the flag FAN_REPORT_FID for identifying objects using file handle and fsid in events. fanotify_mark(2) fails with -ENODEV when trying to set a mark on filesystems that report null f_fsid in stasfs(2). Use the digest of uuid as f_fsid for tmpfs to uniquely identify tmpfs objects as best as possible and allow setting an fanotify mark that reports events with file handles on tmpfs.
