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.
