Notes

In Google Container-Optimized OS release 100 and earlier, where the FANOTIFY EXEC flag is not supported, the Kernel configuration may be partial for the user mode agent to properly function. In such cases, the agent will fallback to asynchronous mode.

In RHCOS version 4.12 and earlier, the Kernel configuration may be partial for the user mode agent to properly function. In such cases, the agent will fallback to asynchronous mode.
