From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> Source kernel commit: 1cf7e834a6fb84de9d1e038d6cf4c5bd0d202ffa Enable multigrain timestamps, which should ensure that there is an apparent change to the timestamp whenever it has been written after being actively observed via getattr. Also, anytime the mtime changes, the ctime must also change, and those are now the only two options for xfs_trans_ichgtime. Have that function unconditionally bump the ctime, and ASSERT that XFS_ICHGTIME_CHG is always set. Finally, stop setting STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE in getattr, since the ctime should give us better semantics now. Reviewed-by: Josef Bacik <josef@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Darrick J.
