From 89204c40a03346cd951e698d854105db4cfedc28 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John McCutchan Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2005 12:13:28 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] inotify: add MOVE_SELF event This adds a MOVE_SELF event to inotify. It is sent whenever the inode you are watching is moved. We need this event so that we can catch something like this: - app1: watch /etc/mtab - app2: cp /etc/mtab /tmp/mtab-work mv /etc/mtab /etc/mtab~ mv /tmp/mtab-work /etc/mtab app1 still thinks it's watching /etc/mtab but it's actually watching /etc/mtab~.
