Hello Linus,
could you please pull from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs.git fsnotify_for_v6.17-rc1
to get a couple of small improvements for fsnotify subsystem. The most
interesting is probably Amir's change modifying the meaning of fsnotify
fmode bits (and I spell it out specifically because I know you care about
those). There's no change for the common cases of no fsnotify watches or
no permission event watches. But when there are permission watches (either
for open or for pre-content events) but no FAN_ACCESS_PERM watch (which
nobody uses in practice) we are now able optimize away unnecessary cache
loads from the read path.
Top of the tree is 0d4c4d4ea443. The full shortlog is:
Amir Goldstein (3):
fanotify: sanitize handle_type values when reporting fid
fsnotify: merge file_set_fsnotify_mode_from_watchers() with open perm hook
fsnotify: optimize FMODE_NONOTIFY_PERM for the common cases
Brahmajit Das (1):
samples: fix building fs-monitor on musl systems
