[RFC][PATCH 2/2] vfs: update overlay inode times on lease_get_mtime()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Instead of looking for all the places that update inode's m_time,
update overlay inode i_mtime just before nfsd needs to read it.

The non uptodate mtime issue was found and verified with the
nfstest_posix test when run over NFS exported overlayfs:

 $ nfstest_posix --runtest=link,write
 ...
 FAIL: link - parent directory st_mtime should be updated
 FAIL: write - file st_mtime should be updated
