Hi Jan, As we discussed [1], here is the implementation of the new FAN_MARK_IGNORE API, to try and sort the historic mess of FAN_MARK_IGNORED_MASK. It is worth mentioning that the new API enables the functionality of watching events ONLY on directories (by ignoring events on non-dir). LTP tests [2] and man page draft [3] are ready as well. I am going on vacation in two weeks time, so wanted to send these out early. Thanks, Amir.
