   7           Say Y here to enable inotify support for userspace, including the
   8           associated system calls.  Inotify allows monitoring of both files and
   9           directories via a single open fd.  Events are read from the file
  10           descriptor, which is also select()- and poll()-able.
  11           Inotify fixes numerous shortcomings in dnotify and introduces several
  12           new features including multiple file events, one-shot support, and
  13           unmount notification.
