Protocol between inotify clients and server:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Client sending query:
|
|
|
1) send protocol version number
|
|
|
2) send query type (string, 4 letters long)
|
|
|
3) send query parameters:
|
|
|
- For STAT, N+1 \0-separated strings:
|
|
|
1) N different names that need checking
|
|
|
2) 1 string containing all the status types to match
|
|
|
|
|
|
Server sending query answer:
|
|
|
1) send protocol version number
|
|
|
2) send query type
|
|
|
3) send struct.pack'ed headers describing the length of the content:
|
|
|
e.g. for STAT, receive 8 integers describing the length of the
|
|
|
8 \0-separated string lists ( one list for each lmar!?ic status type )
