[RFC PATCH -v4 08/14] fsnotify: parent event notification

From: Eric Paris
Date: Fri Dec 12 2008 - 16:54:16 EST


inotify and dnotify both use a similar parent notification mechanism. We
add a generic parent notification mechanism to fsnotify for both of these
to use. This new machanism also adds the dentry flag optimization which
exists for inotify to dnotify.
