Hi,
I'm not sure if this is a bug or a documentation problem or a feature.
I am playing with kqueue and on NetBSD 3.99.21 it seems to return
NOTE_LINK event on directory if I unsuccessfully (EPERM [1]) try to make
a hardlink to this directory. This seems to disagree with manual [2].
What's wrong?
Thanks,
r.
[1] ln(1):
``Hard links may not normally refer to directories and may not span file
systems.''
[2] kqueue(2):
``NOTE_LINK The link count on the file changed.''
