Re: [Gluster-users] @devel - Why no inotify?

The gluster client is a userspace application that connects to the servers and then provides the filesystem interface to the kernel using the fuse module. The kernel then provides a mountable filesystem. inotify is a kernel function that watches an inode for changes. That function would

Re: [Gluster-users] @devel - Why no inotify?

how about gluste's own client(s)? You mount volume (locally to the server) via autofs/fstab and watch for inotify on that mountpoing(or path inside it). That is something I expected was out-of-box. On 03/05/18 17:44, Joe Julian wrote: There is the ability to notify the client already. If you

Re: [Gluster-users] @devel - Why no inotify?

I do not see it works, simple(st) test I thought would be local mount points, I do not see fuse/gluster mentions any options or some elaborate way to make it works, so on mount points even for replica volumes I do not see glusterfs sends inotifies. On 03/05/18 17:44, Joe Julian wrote: There

Re: [Gluster-users] @devel - Why no inotify?

There is the ability to notify the client already. If you developed against libgfapi you could do it (I think). On May 3, 2018 9:28:43 AM PDT, lemonni...@ulrar.net wrote: >Hey, > >I thought about it a while back, haven't actually done it but I assume >using inotify on the brick should work, at

Re: [Gluster-users] @devel - Why no inotify?

Hey, I thought about it a while back, haven't actually done it but I assume using inotify on the brick should work, at least in replica volumes (disperse probably wouldn't, you wouldn't get all events or you'd need to make sure your inotify runs on every brick). Then from there you could notify
