commit55bf882c7fupstream. Change the logic of FAN_ONDIR in two ways that are similar to the logic of FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD, that was fixed in commit54a307ba8d("fanotify: fix logic of events on child"): 1. The flag is meaningless in ignore mask 2. The flag refers only to events in the mask of the mark where it is set This is what the fanotify_mark.2 man page says about FAN_ONDIR: "Without this flag, only events for files are created." It doesn't say anything about setting this flag in ignore mask to stop getting events on directories nor can I think of any setup where this capability would be useful. Currently, when marks masks are merged, the FAN_ONDIR flag set in one mark affects the events that are set in another mark's mask and this behavior causes unexpected results. For example, a user adds a mark on a directory with mask FAN_ATTRIB | FAN_ONDIR and a mount mark with mask FAN_OPEN (without FAN_ONDIR). An opendir() of that directory (which is inside that mount) generates a FAN_OPEN event even though neither of the marks requested to get open events on directories.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
