That option is not only about atime handling but rather about all inode time stamps. So you rather need something like: if (flags & (S_ATIME | S_CTIME | S_MTIME) && !(inode->i_sb->s_flags & SB_LAZYTIME)) dirty = true; Honza > > - if (!(inode->i_sb->s_flags & SB_LAZYTIME) || (flags & S_VERSION)) > + if (dirty) > iflags |= I_DIRTY_SYNC; > __mark_inode_dirty(inode, iflags); > return 0; > @@ -1863,7 +1871,7 @@ int file_update_time(struct file *file) > if (!timespec_equal(&inode->i_ctime, &now)) > sync_it |= S_CTIME; > > - if (IS_I_VERSION(inode)) > + if (IS_I_VERSION(inode) && inode_iversion_need_inc(inode)) > sync_it |= S_VERSION; > > if (!sync_it) > -- > 2.14.3 > -- Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxxx> SUSE Labs, CR
