Hi Fabian, yes, that worries me too. I know that there have been discussions on lkml in which it was made clear that userspace breakage is frowned upon. And it is obvious, that the latest changes concerning the handling of FAN_ONDIR are also visible to userspace. But since the concerning patches have been accepted I think it is ok. I could be wrong though. Maybe someone with a deeper knowledge of kernel policy/guidelines could comment on this?
