Below, find inotify 0.22, against 2.6.12-rc1.
This release introduces a conversion in our primary locking from
spinlocks to semaphores. Semaphores are a more natural fit for our
code, which synchronizes with user-space, thus we clean up a bit of code
with a net reduction of 63 lines. Also, I was able to remove the
GFP_ATOMIC allocation.
I did this as a bit of an experiment, not to fix any specific problem,
and I now think it is the right way to go.
This release also fixes a small bug in the coalescing code, which could
of mistakenly dropped a move event. We now verify that the cookies
match before coalescing.
Comments are welcome.

inotify!
inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:
* dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
* dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
stat structures.
* dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals?
inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:
* inotify's interface is a device node, not SIGIO. You open a
single fd to the device node, which is select()-able.
* inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
you were watching is on was unmounted."
* inotify can watch directories or files.
Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure)
and Gamin (a FAM replacement).

+ inotify
+ a powerful yet simple file change notification system
+
+
+
+Document started 15 Mar 2005 by Robert Love <[email protected]>
+
+(i) User Interface
+
+Inotify is controlled by a device node, /dev/inotify. If you do not use udev,
+this device may need to be created manually. First step, open it
+
+ int dev_fd = open ("/dev/inotify", O_RDONLY);
+
+Change events are managed by "watches". A watch is an (object,mask) pair where
+the object is a file or directory and the mask is a bitmask of one or more
+inotify events that the application wishes to receive. See <linux/inotify.h>
+for valid events. A watch is referenced by a watch descriptor, or wd.
+
+Watches are added via a file descriptor.
+
+Watches on a directory will return events on any files inside of the directory.
+
+Adding a watch is simple,
+
+ /* 'wd' represents the watch on fd with mask */
+ struct inotify_request req = { fd, mask };
+ int wd = ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_WATCH, &req);
+
+You can add a large number of files via something like
+
+ for each file to watch {
+ struct inotify_request req;
+ int file_fd;
+
+ file_fd = open (file, O_RDONLY);
+ if (fd < 0) {
+ perror ("open");
+ break;
+ }
+
+ req.fd = file_fd;
+ req.mask = mask;
+
+ wd = ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_WATCH, &req);
+
+ close (fd);
+ }
+
+You can update an existing watch in the same manner, by passing in a new mask.
+
+An existing watch is removed via the INOTIFY_IGNORE ioctl, for example
+
+ ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_IGNORE, wd);
+
+Events are provided in the form of an inotify_event structure that is read(2)
+from /dev/inotify. The filename is of dynamic length and follows the struct.
+It is of size len. The filename is padded with null bytes to ensure proper
+alignment. This padding is reflected in len.
+
+You can slurp multiple events by passing a large buffer, for example
+
+ size_t len = read (fd, buf, BUF_LEN);
+
+Will return as many events as are available and fit in BUF_LEN.
+
+/dev/inotify is also select() and poll() able.
+
+You can find the size of the current event queue via the FIONREAD ioctl.
+
+All watches are destroyed and cleaned up on close.
+
+
+(ii) Internal Kernel Implementation
+
+Each open inotify device is associated with an inotify_device structure.
+
+Each watch is associated with an inotify_watch structure. Watches are chained
+off of each associated device and each associated inode.
+
+See fs/inotify.c for the locking and lifetime rules.

inotify!
inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:
* dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
* dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
stat structures.
* dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals?
inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:
* inotify's interface is a device node, not SIGIO. You open a
single fd to the device node, which is select()-able.
* inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
you were watching is on was unmounted."
* inotify can watch directories or files.
Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure)
and Gamin (a FAM replacement).

+ inotify
+ a powerful yet simple file change notification system
+
+
+
+Document started 15 Mar 2005 by Robert Love <[email protected]>
+
+(i) User Interface
+
+Inotify is controlled by a device node, /dev/inotify. If you do not use udev,
+this device may need to be created manually. First step, open it
+
+ int dev_fd = open ("/dev/inotify", O_RDONLY);
+
+Change events are managed by "watches". A watch is an (object,mask) pair where
+the object is a file or directory and the mask is a bitmask of one or more
+inotify events that the application wishes to receive. See <linux/inotify.h>
+for valid events. A watch is referenced by a watch descriptor, or wd.
+
+Watches are added via a file descriptor.
+
+Watches on a directory will return events on any files inside of the directory.
+
+Adding a watch is simple,
+
+ /* 'wd' represents the watch on fd with mask */
+ struct inotify_request req = { fd, mask };
+ int wd = ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_WATCH, &req);
+
+You can add a large number of files via something like
+
+ for each file to watch {
+ struct inotify_request req;
+ int file_fd;
+
+ file_fd = open (file, O_RDONLY);
+ if (fd < 0) {
+ perror ("open");
+ break;
+ }
+
+ req.fd = file_fd;
+ req.mask = mask;
+
+ wd = ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_WATCH, &req);
+
+ close (fd);
+ }
+
+You can update an existing watch in the same manner, by passing in a new mask.
+
+An existing watch is removed via the INOTIFY_IGNORE ioctl, for example
+
+ ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_IGNORE, wd);
+
+Events are provided in the form of an inotify_event structure that is read(2)
+from /dev/inotify. The filename is of dynamic length and follows the struct.
+It is of size len. The filename is padded with null bytes to ensure proper
+alignment. This padding is reflected in len.
+
+You can slurp multiple events by passing a large buffer, for example
+
+ size_t len = read (fd, buf, BUF_LEN);
+
+Will return as many events as are available and fit in BUF_LEN.
+
+/dev/inotify is also select() and poll() able.
+
+You can find the size of the current event queue via the FIONREAD ioctl.
+
+All watches are destroyed and cleaned up on close.
+
+
+(ii) Internal Kernel Implementation
+
+Each open inotify device is associated with an inotify_device structure.
+
+Each watch is associated with an inotify_watch structure. Watches are chained
+off of each associated device and each associated inode.
+
+See fs/inotify.c for the locking and lifetime rules.

Robert and others,
Will inotify watch directories recursively? A quick browse through the
source doesn't look like it, but I very well could be wrong. Last I
checked, dnotify did not either. I am looking for a way to synchronize
files in as-real-as-possible-time when they are modified. The ideal
implementation would be a kernel "hook" like d/inotify and a client
application that watches changes and copies them to a remote server for
redundancy purposes. A scheduled rsync works decently, but has a lag
time of 2-3 (or more) hours on certain files on a large filesystem.
Will inotify work for this, or does someone else have another
recommended solution to the problem?
Thanks,
Dale

No, inotify does not support watching directories recursively. I would
love to add it, but it would be a mess to do inside of the kernel.
Making it easy and efficient to watch a full tree, however, was a goal
of inotify. Beagle, a personal indexing infrastructure, watches the
user's entire home directory.
You could never do this in dnotify because you would run out of file
descriptors and pin every file.
In inotify, it is not hard to write a simple recursive loop to add a
watch to each directory starting at a given path. It can even be done
in an atomic fashion. See
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/dashboard-hackers/2004-October/msg00022.html
wherein I publish such an algorithm.
Hope this helps,
Robert Love

This problem is solved really well by inotify. But inotify will not
watch directories recursively for you. You can easily spider your way
down the path yourself adding a watch for each directory you encounter.
This is how beagle works, which has the same needs as your problem.

Will this be included in mainline anytime soon? Kernel side seems to be
working great, and I think all issues was addressed.
The only real issues currently is with the gamin backend, but the
maintainer of gamin do not want to touch it until inotify is in
mainline, and John and others currently have other things to do.

Below is an updated inotify 0.22 patch, with various small clean ups and
a fix for the oops reported by Prakash Punnoor. The oops was unrelated
to the semaphore change, which seems to of been the right thing.
Patch is against 2.6.12-rc2.

inotify!
inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:
* dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
* dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
stat structures.
* dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals?
inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:
* inotify's interface is a device node, not SIGIO. You open a
single fd to the device node, which is select()-able.
* inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
you were watching is on was unmounted."
* inotify can watch directories or files.
Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure)
and Gamin (a FAM replacement).

+ inotify
+ a powerful yet simple file change notification system
+
+
+
+Document started 15 Mar 2005 by Robert Love <[email protected]>
+
+(i) User Interface
+
+Inotify is controlled by a device node, /dev/inotify. If you do not use udev,
+this device may need to be created manually. First step, open it
+
+ int dev_fd = open ("/dev/inotify", O_RDONLY);
+
+Change events are managed by "watches". A watch is an (object,mask) pair where
+the object is a file or directory and the mask is a bitmask of one or more
+inotify events that the application wishes to receive. See <linux/inotify.h>
+for valid events. A watch is referenced by a watch descriptor, or wd.
+
+Watches are added via a file descriptor.
+
+Watches on a directory will return events on any files inside of the directory.
+
+Adding a watch is simple,
+
+ /* 'wd' represents the watch on fd with mask */
+ struct inotify_request req = { fd, mask };
+ int wd = ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_WATCH, &req);
+
+You can add a large number of files via something like
+
+ for each file to watch {
+ struct inotify_request req;
+ int file_fd;
+
+ file_fd = open (file, O_RDONLY);
+ if (fd < 0) {
+ perror ("open");
+ break;
+ }
+
+ req.fd = file_fd;
+ req.mask = mask;
+
+ wd = ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_WATCH, &req);
+
+ close (fd);
+ }
+
+You can update an existing watch in the same manner, by passing in a new mask.
+
+An existing watch is removed via the INOTIFY_IGNORE ioctl, for example
+
+ ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_IGNORE, wd);
+
+Events are provided in the form of an inotify_event structure that is read(2)
+from /dev/inotify. The filename is of dynamic length and follows the struct.
+It is of size len. The filename is padded with null bytes to ensure proper
+alignment. This padding is reflected in len.
+
+You can slurp multiple events by passing a large buffer, for example
+
+ size_t len = read (fd, buf, BUF_LEN);
+
+Will return as many events as are available and fit in BUF_LEN.
+
+/dev/inotify is also select() and poll() able.
+
+You can find the size of the current event queue via the FIONREAD ioctl.
+
+All watches are destroyed and cleaned up on close.
+
+
+(ii) Internal Kernel Implementation
+
+Each open inotify device is associated with an inotify_device structure.
+
+Each watch is associated with an inotify_watch structure. Watches are chained
+off of each associated device and each associated inode.
+
+See fs/inotify.c for the locking and lifetime rules.

Below is an updated replacement patch, against 2.6.12-rc2-mm1.
Other than misc. cleanup, the only change is the trivial fix for
Prakash's reported oops on watch ignore, which I just introduced.
The semaphore conversion seems right. It stays.
Best,

inotify!
inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:
* dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
* dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
stat structures.
* dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals?
inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:
* inotify's interface is a device node, not SIGIO. You open a
single fd to the device node, which is select()-able.
* inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
you were watching is on was unmounted."
* inotify can watch directories or files.
Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure)
and Gamin (a FAM replacement).

+ inotify
+ a powerful yet simple file change notification system
+
+
+
+Document started 15 Mar 2005 by Robert Love <[email protected]>
+
+(i) User Interface
+
+Inotify is controlled by a device node, /dev/inotify. If you do not use udev,
+this device may need to be created manually. First step, open it
+
+ int dev_fd = open ("/dev/inotify", O_RDONLY);
+
+Change events are managed by "watches". A watch is an (object,mask) pair where
+the object is a file or directory and the mask is a bitmask of one or more
+inotify events that the application wishes to receive. See <linux/inotify.h>
+for valid events. A watch is referenced by a watch descriptor, or wd.
+
+Watches are added via a file descriptor.
+
+Watches on a directory will return events on any files inside of the directory.
+
+Adding a watch is simple,
+
+ /* 'wd' represents the watch on fd with mask */
+ struct inotify_request req = { fd, mask };
+ int wd = ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_WATCH, &req);
+
+You can add a large number of files via something like
+
+ for each file to watch {
+ struct inotify_request req;
+ int file_fd;
+
+ file_fd = open (file, O_RDONLY);
+ if (fd < 0) {
+ perror ("open");
+ break;
+ }
+
+ req.fd = file_fd;
+ req.mask = mask;
+
+ wd = ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_WATCH, &req);
+
+ close (fd);
+ }
+
+You can update an existing watch in the same manner, by passing in a new mask.
+
+An existing watch is removed via the INOTIFY_IGNORE ioctl, for example
+
+ ioctl (dev_fd, INOTIFY_IGNORE, wd);
+
+Events are provided in the form of an inotify_event structure that is read(2)
+from /dev/inotify. The filename is of dynamic length and follows the struct.
+It is of size len. The filename is padded with null bytes to ensure proper
+alignment. This padding is reflected in len.
+
+You can slurp multiple events by passing a large buffer, for example
+
+ size_t len = read (fd, buf, BUF_LEN);
+
+Will return as many events as are available and fit in BUF_LEN.
+
+/dev/inotify is also select() and poll() able.
+
+You can find the size of the current event queue via the FIONREAD ioctl.
+
+All watches are destroyed and cleaned up on close.
+
+
+(ii) Internal Kernel Implementation
+
+Each open inotify device is associated with an inotify_device structure.
+
+Each watch is associated with an inotify_watch structure. Watches are chained
+off of each associated device and each associated inode.
+
+See fs/inotify.c for the locking and lifetime rules.
