7 Say Y here to enable fanotify suport. fanotify is a file access
8 notification system which differs from inotify in that it sends
9 and open file descriptor to the userspace listener along with
10 the event.

20 Say Y here is you want fanotify listeners to be able to make permissions
21 decisions concerning filesystem events. This is used by some fanotify
22 listeners which need to scan files before allowing the system access to
23 use those files. This is used by some anti-malware vendors and by some
24 hierarchical storage managent systems.
