From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> Test that when the lazytime mount option is enabled, updates to atime, mtime, and ctime get persisted in the cases when they should be. Note that this doesn't test that updates aren't persisted when they shouldn't be, as that would be harder to do. (This also means that we don't have to check whether the filesystem supports lazytime before running the test. If lazytime is ignored, the test will pass.) As this test requires support for the shutdown ioctl, it currently runs only on ext4, f2fs, and xfs. It passes on ext4 and f2fs, but it fails on xfs because xfs has a bug where it doesn't persist lazytime timestamp updates on user-triggered syncs or after dirtytime_expire_seconds has elapsed. I've sent out patches to fix this bug.
