+.\" commit 8c1934c8d70b22ca8333b216aec6c7d09fdbd6a6
+By default, when watching events on the children of a directory,
+events are generated for children even after they have been unlinked
+from the directory.
+This can result in large numbers of uninteresting events for
+some applications (e.g., if watching
+.IR /tmp ,
+in which many applications create temporary files whose
+names are immediately unlinked).
+Specifying
+.B IN_EXCL_UNLINK
+changes the default behavior,
+so that events are not generated for children after
+they have been unlinked from the watched directory.

 .B IN_MASK_ADD
 Add (OR) events to watch mask for this pathname if
 it already exists (instead of replacing mask).
