I'm using inotify, and haven't seen it recover after a few minutes. A quick
inspection of the code didn't show me a retry mechanism for that either.
Polling I suspect would eventually work again.

Inotify throws this error (sorry, should have shown this before):
Mar  8 13:57:28 b1 rsyslogd:  [origin software="rsyslogd"
swVersion="8.32.0" x-pid="1606" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com";] start
Mar  8 13:57:28 b1 rsyslogd: imfile: error with inotify API, ignoring file
'/var/log/audit/audit.log': Permission denied [v8.32.0]
I'm wondering if that "ignoring" is permanent, it looks like it is.
