I switched back to ext4 yesterday, because my btrfs fs got corrupted. However mounting with lazytime doesn't work, neither specifying it in /etc/fstab nor a manual remount. It looks like the option is simply ignored. Strace shows, e.g.: # mount -o lazytime /boot mount("/dev/sdc2", "/boot", "ext4", MS_LAZYTIME, NULL) = 0 EXT4-fs (sdc2): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null) /dev/sdc2 on /boot type ext4 (rw,relatime,data=ordered) # mount -o remount,lazytime /var mount("/dev/sdb2", "/var", 0x12c4460, MS_REMOUNT|MS_NOATIME|MS_LAZYTIME, NULL) = 0 EXT4-fs (sdb2): re-mounted. Opts: (null) /dev/sdb2 on /var type ext4 (rw,noatime,data=ordered) When I set "sb->s_flags |= MS_LAZYTIME;" unconditionally in fs/ext4/super.c:5057 (just deleting the if statement), then lazytime gets used when I remount. I'm running the latest git tree (4.14.0-rc1). -- Markus
