I did another test of the Samba server ctime bug on Samba master (4.21.0pre1) and Samba server is still broken in how it reports ctime. An example scenario is simple, creating a hardlink is supposed to update ctime on a file (and this works fine to Windows server and ksmbd etc) but Samba server mistakenly reports ctime as mtime (unless you mount with the "posix" mount option). This e.g. breaks xfstest generic/236 when run to Samba More information is at: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10883
I wonder if this is a bug going back as far as c9dca82ed7757f4745edf6ee6048bd94d86c4dbc
@Jeremy: do you remember why you chose to return mtime in get_change_timespec() and not ctime?
