inotify_rm_watch — remove an existing watch from an inotify instance
#include <sys/inotify.h>
int inotify_rm_watch( |
int fd, |
uint32_t wd); |
inotify_rm_watch() removes
the watch associated with the watch descriptor wd from the inotify instance
associated with the file descriptor fd.
Removing a watch causes an IN_IGNORED event to be generated for this
watch descriptor. (See inotify(7).)
On success, inotify_rm_watch() returns zero, or
−1 if an error occurred (in which case, errno is set appropriately).
fd is not a
valid file descriptor.
The watch descriptor wd is not valid; or
fd is not an
inotify file descriptor.
