When user requests the flag FAN_REPORT_FID in fanotify_init(), a unique file identifier of the event target object will be reported with the event. The file identifier includes the filesystem's fsid (i.e. from statfs(2)) and an NFS file handle of the file (i.e. from name_to_handle_at(2)). The file identifier makes holding the path reference and passing a file descriptor to user redundant, so those are disabled in a group with FAN_REPORT_FID. Encode fid and store it in event for a group with FAN_REPORT_FID. Up to 12 bytes of file handle on 32bit arch (16 bytes on 64bit arch) are stored inline in fanotify_event struct. Larger file handles are stored in an external allocated buffer. On failure to encode fid, we print a warning and queue the event without the fid information.

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.
