您可以添加一个inotify手表,该手表将在 mmap-ed 文件上的msync()上触发。
这需要修补 Linux 内核以启用对新 inotify watch 的支持。该补丁添加了一个新标志IN_SYNC - 一个新的 inotify 事件,每当对 mmap-ed 文件执行 msync() 时就会触发该事件。
补丁已经在 Linux Kernel v2.6.37 上测试过了。

Subject: [PATCH] Add mmap-ed file support to inotify
This patch adds a new flag IN_SYNC. This is a new inotify event that is
triggered whenever msync() is carried out on a mmap-ed file.
