The dnotify FS_DN_RENAME event is used to request notification about a move within the same parent directory and was always coupled with the FS_MOVED_FROM event. Rename the FS_DN_RENAME event flag to FS_RENAME, decouple it from FS_MOVED_FROM and report it with the moved dentry instead of the moved inode, so it has the information about both old and new parent and name. Generate the FS_RENAME event regardless of same parent dir and apply the "same parent" rule in the generic fsnotify_handle_event() helper that is used to call backends with ->handle_inode_event() method (i.e. dnotify). The ->handle_inode_event() method is not rich enough to report both old and new parent and name anyway. The enriched event is reported to fanotify over the ->handle_event() method with the old and new dir inode marks in marks array slots for ITER_TYPE_INODE and a new iter type slot ITER_TYPE_INODE2. The enriched event will be used for reporting old and new parent+name to fanotify groups with FAN_RENAME events.

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.
