Hi,
The ev_stat inotify backend can miss files events while the ev_stat
notification callback execute. If additional changes occurs before the
main libev loop resume, the events will be lost.
This is due to the following stat_timer_cb() code:
#if EV_USE_INOTIFY
if (fs_fd >= 0)
{
infy_del (EV_A_ w);
infy_add (EV_A_ w);
ev_stat_stat (EV_A_ w); /* avoid race... */
}
#endif
Removing the call to ev_stat_stat() fixes the problem.
Additionally, could you detail why it is necessary to call infy_del() /
infy_add() on the notified descriptor ?
Regards,
