| ---help--- |
| Say Y here is you want fanotify listeners to be able to make permissions |
| decisions concerning filesystem events. This is used by some fanotify |
| listeners which need to scan files before allowing the system access to |

| hierarchical storage management systems. |

| If unsure, say N. |
