[PATCH v2 00/28] vfs/nfsd: add support for CB_NOTIFY callbacks in directory delegations

[Jeff Layton]

This version has a number of significant changes from the last. I
dropped some of the R-b's for this reason.

Of particular interest to the fsnotify maintainers will be the
FSNOTIFY_EVENT_RENAME data type. This combines the FSNOTIFY_EVENT_DENTRY
and FSNOTIFY_EVENT_INODE event types so that the fsnotify event can
additionally send information about a file that was unlinked as a result
of being replaced via rename().

There are also a host of other bugfixes, and a new tracepoint. Please
consider this for v7.2.

Original cover letter follows:

---------------------------------8<------------------------------------

This patchset builds on the directory delegation work we did a few
months ago, to add support for CB_NOTIFY callbacks for some events. In
particular, creates, unlinks and renames. The server also sends updated
directory attributes in the notifications. With this support, the client
can register interest in a directory and get notifications about changes
within it without losing its lease.

The series starts with patches to allow the vfs to ignore certain types
of events on directories. nfsd can then request these sorts of
delegations on directories, and then set up inotify watches on the
directory to trigger sending CB_NOTIFY events.

This has mainly been tested with pynfs, with some new testcases that
I'll be posting soon. They seem to work fine with those tests, but I
don't think we'll want to merge these until we have a complete
client-side implementation to test against.
