Abstract
A host device comprises a kernel space comprising a multipath driver component and a user space comprising a container comprising an application, a daemon process and a data structure comprising a plurality of file system entries. The multipath driver component comprises a handler that is configured to detect changes to the file system entries. The host device is configured to mount the data structure to the container and the file system entries are modifiable by the application via the mounting. The multipath driver component is configured to determine that a given file system entry has been modified based at least in part on a detection of a change by the handler and to issue an event to the daemon process. The daemon process is configured to execute an operation associated with the multipath driver in the user space based at least in part on the issued event.
