It would be so much simpler if FAN_FS_ERROR required fid_mode...

What is the reason for this lock?
It does not look right to be holding it through fsnotify_add_event()

I wonder if that is the best API to serve the needs of "single slot event"
I have no better idea at the moment.
Note that fsid does not need to be passed in the data.
It is available via error_event->mark->connector->fsid so no need
to duplicate a copy in error_event->fsid.

It would be so much simpler if FAN_FS_ERROR required fid_mode...

goto out_close_fd, even though there is not supposed to be an open fd
makes me wonder also about the validity of event->pid in the context of
an fs error event...

I am not sure that this check and the assignment below are safe
w.r.t memory order.
Perhaps this needs READ_ONCE() - need Jan to comment on this.

I don't know if I commented about this one specifically,
but I meant that this constant should also be disambiguate
FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_FS_ERROR
but if fsid and inode info are going away, the generic name could stay.

Just 'generation' would be a more conventional name.

But I must say, I really dislike that fact that this struct duplicates
the information that would be available with fanotify_event_info_fid
record otherwise.

I realize that this would not allow reporting fs errors for filesystems
that do not support exportfs ops, but is that really a concern?
For which filesystem would that be a problem?

It would be so much simpler if FAN_FS_ERROR required fid_mode...

I also realize that file handles are supposed to be opaque blobs whose
format userspace should not be concerned about, but since we are talking
about and interface to be used by fs monitoring tools which may need to
follow up with filesystem specific actions anyway, I don't know if reporting
a file handle instead of inode and generation is a big limitation.

Thanks,
Amir.
