    12 ## [1.6.0] - 2022-10-13

    13 

    14 This version of fsnotify needs Go 1.16 (this was already the case since 1.5.1,

    15 but not documented). It also increases the minimum Linux version to 2.6.32.

    16 

    17 ### Additions

    18 

    19 - all: add `Event.Has()` and `Op.Has()` ([#477])

    20 

    21   This makes checking events a lot easier; for example:

    22 

    23 	    if event.Op&Write == Write && !(event.Op&Remove == Remove) {

    24 	    }

    25 

    26 	Becomes:

    27 

    28 	    if event.Has(Write) && !event.Has(Remove) {

    29 	    }

    30 

    31 - all: add cmd/fsnotify ([#463])

    32 

    33   A command-line utility for testing and some examples.

    34 

    35 ### Changes and fixes

    36 

    37 - inotify: don't ignore events for files that don't exist ([#260], [#470])

    38 

    39   Previously the inotify watcher would call `os.Lstat()` to check if a file

    40   still exists before emitting events.

    41 

    42   This was inconsistent with other platforms and resulted in inconsistent event

    43   reporting (e.g. when a file is quickly removed and re-created), and generally

    44   a source of confusion. It was added in 2013 to fix a memory leak that no

    45   longer exists.

    46 

    47 - all: return `ErrNonExistentWatch` when `Remove()` is called on a path that's

    48   not watched ([#460])

    49 

    50 - inotify: replace epoll() with non-blocking inotify ([#434])

    51 

    52   Non-blocking inotify was not generally available at the time this library was

    53   written in 2014, but now it is. As a result, the minimum Linux version is

    54   bumped from 2.6.27 to 2.6.32. This hugely simplifies the code and is faster.

    55 

    56 - kqueue: don't check for events every 100ms ([#480])

    57 

    58   The watcher would wake up every 100ms, even when there was nothing to do. Now

    59   it waits until there is something to do.

    60 

    61 - macos: retry opening files on EINTR ([#475])

    62 

    63 - kqueue: skip unreadable files ([#479])

    64 

    65   kqueue requires a file descriptor for every file in a directory; this would

    66   fail if a file was unreadable by the current user. Now these files are simply

    67   skipped.

    68 

    69 - windows: fix renaming a watched directory if the parent is also watched ([#370])

    70 

    71 - windows: increase buffer size from 4K to 64K ([#485])

    72 

    73 - windows: close file handle on Remove() ([#288])

    74 

    75 - kqueue: put pathname in the error if watching a file fails ([#471])

    76 

    77 - inotify, windows: calling Close() more than once could race ([#465])

    78 

    79 - kqueue: improve Close() performance ([#233])

    80 

    81 - all: various documentation additions and clarifications.
