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	21f096aede	Remove the watches a failed tree call had already added ... A recursive watch that hit the watch limit or an unreadable directory threw after adding watches for part of the tree, which stayed in the instance and kept counting against the user's limit. The call now leaves the instance as it found it. The test needs a second instance for the check, because a repeated watch on the same instance only updates the existing one.	2026-09-19 00:43:37 +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	6375a23328	Report queue overflows instead of dropping them ... `IN_Q_OVERFLOW` arrives with watch descriptor -1, so the path lookup failed and the event was silently discarded. It is now delivered with an empty path so consumers can rescan after the kernel dropped events.	2026-09-13 23:06:28 +02:00
T. R. Bernstein	76f91f67a6	Add integration tests for inofity limits ... inotify exposes a /proc interface to limit kernel memory usage. If those limits are set too low, inotify cannot add all watches. The integration test verifies, that Inotify yields an error in that case.	2026-03-12 14:52:33 +01:00
