Hey Jan/Amir/Christian,
Sending through v2 of the fanotify pidfd patch series. This series
contains the necessary fixes/suggestions that had come out of the
previous discussions, which can be found here [0], here [1], and here
[3].
The main difference in this series is that we perform pidfd creation a
little earlier on i.e. in copy_event_to_user() so that clean up of the
pidfd can be performed nicely in the event of an info
generation/copying error. Additionally, we introduce two errors. One
being FAN_NOPIDFD, which is supplied to the listener in the event that
a pidfd cannot be created due to early process termination. The other
being FAN_EPIDFD, which will be supplied in the event that an error
was encountered during pidfd creation.
Please let me know what you think.
