[clamav-users] clamAV OnAccess support for IBM AIX

[Martin Rödlach]

Hi,

we would need an implementation of the clamAV OnAccess feature for AIX 
which ist currently not available.
On Linux it relies on the fanotify function which is not available on AIX.

So I opened a case with IBM and they told me the following:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 
- - - 

"Hi, AIX has no exact counter part to fanotify(), though there are several 
other AIX API's such as ld_intercept() and fskv_reg Kernel Services, 
though one would need to write a kernel extension to use them."

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 
- - - 

So it seems there are two API's considerable. The question is now, if one 
of the clamAV developers could imagine to implement the feature using this 
way.

Thanks a lot and keep up the good work.

Best regards
Martin
