T. R. Bernstein	c037302c01	Report the directories a growing tree could not watch ... Extending an automatically watched tree to a new directory swallowed every error, so a reached watch limit or an unreadable directory left part of the tree unwatched without any sign. No call of the consumer is running at that moment, so the failures now arrive in the event stream as InotifyEvent.watchFailed, after the event that triggered the extension. The library watches what it can first: a reached limit ends the attempt, an unreadable directory is skipped with its subtree, and a directory that vanished in between is not reported. The buffer now carries the library's own events next to the kernel's, which keeps them in order and hides the stream's element type. The test runner drops root's DAC capabilities so that an unreadable directory can be tested.	2026-09-19 00:56:31 +02:00
T. R. Bernstein	3c852a565c	Deliver an event enum with the queue overflow as its own case ... The stream's element is now the enum InotifyEvent, and the struct that describes a change to a watched item is FileSystemEvent. A queue overflow was an event with descriptor -1 and an empty path that every consumer had to know about; as a case, the compiler makes them handle it. The enum is also where failed watches of a growing tree will be reported, since no call site can catch them.	2026-09-19 00:10:35 +02:00
T. R. Bernstein	8af25be549	Exclude items by shell pattern as well as by name ... Patterns such as `.*` or `@*` are matched against an item's own name with `fnmatch`, in the same places as excluded names: resolving a tree, extending a watch to a directory that appears later, and delivering events. Dependents that prune large trees can now skip whole families of directories without listing each name.	2026-09-16 11:21:45 +02:00
