Other than fanotify , I can achieve my requirement through a
driver/module. If this can be achieved through a driver/module please
provide me inputs to start.
Thanks,

Hi all,
Is it possible to write a module/driver which notifies
file/directory change asynchronously along with user name(or
with uid) who modified it.
inotify will do change notification but it will not provide
uid who modified/created the file.
audit and inotify combination can work, but I'm looking for a
better option than this.
Please help me.
Thanks,
Ravi

You can have a look at fanotify.

Hi Ravi,
As mentioned in the article, you can start looking at fsnotify code in
the kernel. What we need is like something inserted between the VFS
Layer and the filesystem driver which will tell you what is going on.
