Hi, I'm using nilfs on ARM I have found a problem when these conditions are met: - set protection period to 60 seconds - set current time on the future (example: year 2020) - write something on flash, so that some checkpoints are created - set current time to the present - perform writes on flash. When the garbage collector starts, it will notice that the checkpoint "from the future" is protected and will not remove it. The problem is that it will not remove subsequent checkpoints (but with timestamp that shouldn't be protected), and therefore there won't be any garbage collection until 2020. The only workaround is to manually remove the "future" checkpoints with rmcp. Is this a known issue? Thanks!
