/** @file
 *
 * This example implements a file system with a single file whose
 * file name changes dynamically to reflect the current time.
 *
 * It illustrates the use of the fuse_lowlevel_notify_inval_entry()
 * function.
 *
 * To see the effect, first start the file system with the
 * ``--no-notify``
 *
 *     $ notify_inval_entry --update-interval=1 --timeout 30 --no-notify mnt/
 *
 * Observe that `ls` always prints the correct directory contents
 * (since `readdir` output is not cached)::
 *
 *     $ ls mnt; sleep 1; ls mnt; sleep 1; ls mnt
 *     Time_is_15h_48m_33s  current_time
 *     Time_is_15h_48m_34s  current_time
 *     Time_is_15h_48m_35s  current_time
 *
 * However, if you try to access a file by name the kernel will
 * report that it still exists:
 *
 *     $ file=$(ls mnt/); echo $file
 *     Time_is_15h_50m_09s
 *     $ sleep 5; stat mnt/$file
 *       File: ‘mnt/Time_is_15h_50m_09s’
 *       Size: 32                Blocks: 0          IO Block: 4096   regular file
 *     Device: 2ah/42d	Inode: 3           Links: 1
 *     Access: (0444/-r--r--r--)  Uid: (    0/    root)   Gid: (    0/    root)
 *     Access: 1969-12-31 16:00:00.000000000 -0800
 *     Modify: 1969-12-31 16:00:00.000000000 -0800
 *     Change: 1969-12-31 16:00:00.000000000 -0800
 *      Birth: -
 *
 * Only once the kernel cache timeout has been reached will the stat
 * call fail:
 *
 *     $ sleep 30; stat mnt/$file
 *     stat: cannot stat ‘mnt/Time_is_15h_50m_09s’: No such file or directory
 *
 * In contrast, if you enable notifications you will be unable to stat
 * the file as soon as the file system updates its name:
 *
 *     $ notify_inval_entry --update-interval=1 --timeout 30 --no-notify mnt/
 *     $ file=$(ls mnt/); stat mnt/$file
 *       File: ‘mnt/Time_is_20h_42m_11s’
 *       Size: 0                 Blocks: 0          IO Block: 4096   regular empty file
 *     Device: 2ah/42d	Inode: 2           Links: 1
 *     Access: (0000/----------)  Uid: (    0/    root)   Gid: (    0/    root)
 *     Access: 1969-12-31 16:00:00.000000000 -0800
 *     Modify: 1969-12-31 16:00:00.000000000 -0800
 *     Change: 1969-12-31 16:00:00.000000000 -0800
 *      Birth: -
 *     $ sleep 1; stat mnt/$file
 *     stat: cannot stat ‘mnt/Time_is_20h_42m_11s’: No such file or directory
