You probably want to use the soft updates "snapshot" mechanism to take
a frozen snapshot of the filesystem state and then run your
checksumming/fingerprinting scan on that.
At that point it's obviously going to be divergent with the ongoing
state of the filesystem if that filesystem is active, but such is
generally true of any monitoring mechanism, you just want to make sure
that the state doesn't change under you as you're trying to derive
your "base delta" state.
