Jan, In the vfs fanotify update for v6.7-rc1 [1], we considerably increased the amount of filesystems that can setup inode marks with FAN_REPORT_FID: - NFS export is no longer required for setting up inode marks - All the simple fs gained a non-zero fsid This leaves the following in-tree filesystems where inode marks with FAN_REPORT_FID cannot be set: - nfs, fuse, afs, coda (zero fsid) - btrfs non-root subvol (fsid not a unique identifier of sb) This patch set takes care of these remaining cases, by allowing inode marks, as long as all inode marks in the group are contained to the same filesystem and same fsid (i.e. subvol). I've written some basic sanity tests [2] and a man-page update draft [3]. The LTP tests excersize the new code by running tests that did not run before on ntfs-3g fuse filesystem and skipping the test cases with mount and sb marks. I've also tested fsnotifywait --recursive on fuse and on btrfs subvol. It works as expected - if tree travesal crosses filesystem or subvol boundary, setting the subdir mark fails with -EXDEV. Thanks, Amir.
