       - Hi Linux kernel, I'd like to use file monitoring using your interfaces- Sure, here's inotify; wait, no: fsnotify; wait, no: fanotify- Okay, that's weird. Anyway, I'd like to use whatever API you provide with a FUSE file system- You can't- But you support userspace file systems, right?- I do, but the API currently doesn't support events- Do other file systems support events?- No idea- Is there a list of file systems that support events?- Nope- Can I… can I check at run time?- No
