The patch titled lutimesat: actual syscall and wire-up on i386 has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is lutimesat-actual-syscall-and-wire-up-on-i386.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: lutimesat: actual syscall and wire-up on i386 From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxxx> lutimesat(2) does everything futimesat(2) does except it doesn't follow symlinks. It could be used by tar(1) and cp(1). FreeBSD and NetBSD have lutimes(2) which can be emulated by C library. lutimesat(2) accepts "struct timespec" which means timestamps with nanosecond granularity. Tested on XFS which has nanosecond timestamps on-disk. Changes to do_utimes() which is used by all existing utime* syscalls pass LTP utime tests.
