inotify_rm_watch(2) System Calls Manual inotify_rm_watch(2)
inotify_rm_watch - remove an existing watch from an inotify
instance
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
#include <sys/inotify.h>
int inotify_rm_watch(int fd, int wd);
inotify_rm_watch() removes the watch associated with the watch
descriptor wd from the inotify instance associated with the file
descriptor fd.
Removing a watch causes an IN_IGNORED event to be generated for
this watch descriptor. (See inotify(7).)
On success, inotify_rm_watch() returns zero. On error, -1 is
returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
EBADF fd is not a valid file descriptor.
EINVAL The watch descriptor wd is not valid; or fd is not an
inotify file descriptor.
Linux.
Linux 2.6.13.
