Why does it presume that event_info->dir is non-NULL? Did smach check all the callers to fsnotify() or something? What about future callers that will pass NULL, just like this one: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20210629191035.681913-12-krisman@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Please fix the tool. Thanks, Amir.
