[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 50/95] fsnotify: generalize handling of extra event flags

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Tue May 07 2019 - 01:51:34 EST


From: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 007d1e8395eaa59b0e7ad9eb2b53a40859446a88 ]

FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD gets a special treatment in fsnotify() because it is
not a flag specifying an event type, but rather an extra flags that may
be reported along with another event and control the handling of the
event by the backend.

FS_ISDIR is also an "extra flag" and not an "event type" and therefore
desrves the same treatment. With inotify/dnotify backends it was never
possible to set FS_ISDIR in mark masks, so it did not matter.
With fanotify backend, mark adding code jumps through hoops to avoid
setting the FS_ISDIR in the commulative object mask.

Separate the constant ALL_FSNOTIFY_EVENTS to ALL_FSNOTIFY_FLAGS and
ALL_FSNOTIFY_EVENTS, so the latter can be used to test for specific
event types.
