Sent this to Darwin-Kernel and got no response, so trying here -- with an addendum: vn_rdwr() is in the same boat. Is it OK to use that?

Ok, this is confusing...
knote, knote_attach, and knote_detach are all exported by the BSD KPI, however in the framework event.h header they are all missing (including the klist struct) and in the kernel src header they are marked as KERNEL_PRIVATE. So which is it?

HFS and UFS still use the KNOTE interface and it doesn't look like the VFS layer is doing anything on behalf of clients, so how do 3rd party file systems make use of the event system. Can I just copy the klist struct to my own header and go with knote? It is a published KPI, so the struct should not change.

Thanks.
