Subject: [PATCH] Don't set relatime when noatime is specified
Date: Sun, 19 Apr 2009 18:40:43 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090419164043.GA32469@basil.nowhere.org> (raw)

Don't set relatime when noatime is specified

Since 

commit 0a1c01c9477602ee8b44548a9405b2c1d587b5a2
Author: Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com>
Date:   Thu Mar 26 17:53:14 2009 +0000

    Make relatime default

when a file system is mounted explicitely with noatime it gets both
relatime and noatime set. 

This shows up like this in /proc/mounts:

/dev/xxx /yyy ext3 rw,noatime,relatime,errors=continue,data=writeback 0 0

That looks strange.  The VFS uses noatime in this case, but both
flags are set. So it's more a cosmetic issue, but still better
to fix.
