Amir Goldstein 64343119d7 exportfs: support encoding non-decodeable file handles by default ... AT_HANDLE_FID was added as an API for name_to_handle_at() that request the encoding of a file id, which is not intended to be decoded. This file id is used by fanotify to describe objects in events. So far, overlayfs is the only filesystem that supports encoding non-decodeable file ids, by providing export_operations with an ->encode_fh() method and without a ->decode_fh() method. Add support for encoding non-decodeable file ids to all the filesystems that do not provide export_operations, by encoding a file id of type FILEID_INO64_GEN from { i_ino, i_generation }. A filesystem may that does not support NFS export, can opt-out of encoding non-decodeable file ids for fanotify by defining an empty export_operations struct (i.e. with a NULL ->encode_fh() method). This allows the use of fanotify events with file ids on filesystems like 9p which do not support NFS export to bring fanotify in feature parity with inotify on those filesystems. Note that fanotify also requires that the filesystems report a non-null fsid. Currently, many simple filesystems that have support for inotify (e.g. debugfs, tracefs, sysfs) report a null fsid, so can still not be used with fanotify in file id reporting mode.
