# When inotify_rm_watch returns -1 there's an error:
# The errno for this call can be either one of the following:
# EBADF: fd is not a valid file descriptor.
# EINVAL: The watch descriptor wd is not valid; or fd is
# not an inotify file descriptor.
#
# if we can't access the errno here we cannot even raise
# an exception and we need to ignore the problem, one of
# the most common cases is when you remove a directory from
# the filesystem and that directory is observed. When inotify
# tries to call inotify_rm_watch with a non existing directory
# either of the 2 errors might come up because the files inside
# it might have events generated way before they were handled.
# Unfortunately only ctypes in Python 2.6 supports accessing errno:
# http://bugs.python.org/issue1798 and in order to solve
# the problem for previous versions we need to introduce
# code that is quite complex:
# http://stackoverflow.com/questions/661017/access-to-errno-from-python
#
# See #4310 for future resolution of this issue.
