I'm surprised we don't have a generic macro for that yet (or maybe I just couldn't find it) >> @@ -249,6 +251,12 @@ static void *calc_ptr(struct ext4_attr *a, struct ext4_sb_info *sbi) >> return NULL; >> } >> >> +static ssize_t print_time(char *buf, __le32 lo, __u8 hi) > > It would probably be more consistent to name this "print_tstamp()" > since it isn't strictly a "time" as one would expect.

I'll integrate all of the above and post as a non-RFC patch then after some testing. Arnd
