EV_INOTIFY_BUFSIZE's doubt in libev

[Simon Liu]

Hi marc, I read libev's code , I found EV_INOTIFY_BUFSIZE's define

/* the * 2 is to allow for alignment padding, which for some reason is >> 8
*/
# define EV_INOTIFY_BUFSIZE (sizeof (struct inotify_event) * 2 + NAME_MAX)

therefor my problem is why need *2(your comment make me doubt).
