From 69562eb0bd3e6bb8e522a7b254334e0fb30dff0c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amir Goldstein Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2023 07:20:44 +0300 Subject: fanotify: disallow mount/sb marks on kernel internal pseudo fs Hopefully, nobody is trying to abuse mount/sb marks for watching all anonymous pipes/inodes. I cannot think of a good reason to allow this - it looks like an oversight that dated back to the original fanotify API.
