Say Y here to enable fanotify suport. fanotify is a file access
notification system which differs from inotify in that it sends

If unsure, say Y.
config FANOTIFY_ACCESS_PERMISSIONS
bool "fanotify permissions checking"
depends on FANOTIFY
depends on SECURITY
default n
---help---
Say Y here is you want fanotify listeners to be able to make permissions

listeners which need to scan files before allowing the system access to

hierarchical storage managent systems.
If unsure, say N.
