Shouldn't we get these from uapi headers? But I guess the problem is that
you want this sample to work before glibc picks up the new headers? Is this
meant as a sample code for userspace to copy from or more as a testcase?

The ordering of additional infos is undefined. Your code must not rely on
the fact that FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_ERROR comes first and
FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_FID second. Also you should ignore (maybe just print
type and len in this sample code) when you see unexpected info types as
later additions to the API may add additional info records
