Bug#510118: dnotify not work on 2.6.26, 2.6.27 and 2.6.28
Hello,
dnotify is working on my machines running 2.6.26-1, 2.6.26-2 and 2.6.29-2-686.
Here is what happens when I `cat /tmp/bla`:
zaatar:~$ dnotify -A /tmp -e echo got that!
got that!
Which translates in strace as:
{si_signo=SIGRT_2, si_code=0x3, si_pid=1089, si_uid=3,
si_value={int=129100401, ptr=0x7b1ea71}}, 0, 8) = 34
clone(child_stack=0,
flags=CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID|CLONE_CHILD_SETTID|SIGCHLD,
child_tidptr=0xb7e21708) = 2315
rt_sigtimedwait([CHLD RT_2], got that!
{si_signo=SIGCHLD, si_code=CLD_EXITED, si_pid=2315, si_status=0,
si_utime=0, si_stime=1}, 0, 8) = 17
waitpid(-1, [{WIFEXITED(s) && WEXITSTATUS(s) == 0}], WNOHANG) = 2315
rt_sigtimedwait([CHLD RT_2],
zaatar:~$ grep NOTIFY /boot/config-2.6.26-2-686
CONFIG_I2O_LCT_NOTIFY_ON_CHANGES=y
CONFIG_DNOTIFY=y
CONFIG_INOTIFY=y
CONFIG_INOTIFY_USER=y
> I have here various kernel ( 2.6.26.* 2.6.27.*, 2.6.28) all on i686
It seems the problem your are facing is not related to the kernels you
mentioned above.
It could be worth closing or renaming this bug.
