Subject: Does inotify work with special files such as /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/children?
Date: Sun, 28 Sep 2014 23:09:50 +0000 (GMT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <fb54b1e8bb54.5428953e@langara.bc.ca> (raw)

Hello,

I can't seem to get inotify to work with special files such as
/proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/children? I just need to get a simple yes/no
answer on whether it works for special files or whether I have to try
a different approach.

Thank you,
Steven Stewart-Gallus
