From a9dc971d3fdb857a2bcd6d53238125a2cd31d5f4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amy Griffis Date: Thu, 1 Jun 2006 13:11:03 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] inotify (3/5): add interfaces to kernel API Add inotify_init_watch() so caller can use inotify_watch refcounts before calling inotify_add_watch(). Add inotify_find_watch() to find an existing watch for an (ih,inode) pair. This is similar to inotify_find_update_watch(), but does not update the watch's mask if one is found. Add inotify_rm_watch() to remove a watch via the watch pointer instead of the watch descriptor.
