Hi Guys,

In the manpages "man inotify" it is suggested that function calls like
write and truncate are modify events. But from this opened issue it
appears like openat might be a modify event to inotify also?

https://github.com/inotify-tools/inotify-tools/issues/116

Just curious, is this expected, should I update the documentation?

Regards,
Eric
