From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 03dbab3bba5f009d053635c729d1244f2c8bad38 ] Nathan reported that he was seeing the new warning in setattr_copy_mgtime pop when starting podman containers. Overlayfs is trying to set the atime and mtime via notify_change without also setting the ctime. POSIX states that when the atime and mtime are updated via utimes() that we must also update the ctime to the current time. The situation with overlayfs copy-up is analogies, so add ATTR_CTIME to the bitmask. notify_change will fill in the value.
