[PATCH] procfs fixes for inotify/dnotify

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Problem description:
When a new process is created, the creation of the respective PID
subdirectory of /proc is deferred until the /proc-directory is beeing
read (by e.g. ps(1)). This causes file notification frameworks like
dnotify and inotify to not work correctly with /proc.

This patch fixes the problem.
