*	Enhance nscd's inotify support (Bug 14906).	Carlos O'Donell	2015-03-13	1	-25/+21
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	In bug 14906 the user complains that the inotify support in nscd is not sufficient when it comes to detecting changes in the configurationfiles that should be watched for the various databases. The current nscd implementation uses inotify to watch for changes in the configuration files, but adds watches only for IN_DELETE_SELF and IN_MODIFY. These watches are insufficient to cover even the most basic uses by a system administrator. For example using emacs or vim to edit a configuration file should trigger a reload but it might not if the editors use move to atomically update the file. This atomic update changes the inode and thus removes the notification on the file (as inotify is based on inodes). Thus the inotify support in nscd for configuration files is insufficient to account for the average use cases of system administrators and users. The inotify support is significantly enhanced and described here: https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-02/msg00504.html Tested on x86_64 with and without inotify support.

	nscd can clear caches when certain files change. The list of files was hardcoded so far and worked for nss_files and nss_dns and those modules which need no monitoring. nss_db, for instance, has its own set of files to monitor. Now the NSS modules themselves can request that certain files are monitored.
