An inotify watch on a directory will send events for children even if those children have been unlinked. This patch add a new inotify flag IN_EXCL_UNLINK which allows a watch to specificy they don't care about unlinked children. This should fix performance problems seen by tasks which add a watch to /tmp and then are overrun with events when other processes are reading and writing to unlinked files they created in /tmp. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16296 Requested-by: Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
