- ---help---
- Say Y here to enable inotify support for userspace, including the
- associated system calls. Inotify allows monitoring of both files and
- directories via a single open fd. Events are read from the file
- descriptor, which is also select()- and poll()-able.
- Inotify fixes numerous shortcomings in dnotify and introduces several
- new features including multiple file events, one-shot support, and
- unmount notification.
- For more information, see <file:Documentation/filesystems/inotify.txt>
- If unsure, say Y.
