Perhaps this helps? See the following manpages:

Inotify			(7)	monitoring file system events
inotify_add_watch	(2)	add a watch to an initialized inotify
				instance
inotify_init		(2)	initialize an inotify instance
inotify_init1		(2)	initialize an inotify instance
inotify_rm_watch	(2)	remove an existing watch from an
				inotify instance
