Subject: [PATCH] generic/528: take fs timestamps granularity into account in tolerance interval
Date: Mon, 8 Nov 2021 14:49:05 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211108144905.11515-1-lhenriques@suse.de> (raw)
Filesystems timestamps granularity can cause spurious test failures:
QA output created by 528
btime has value of 1635818936
btime is NOT in range 1635818937 .. 1635818942
This test output makes it looks like $testfile was created *before* the
'date' command was executed. What really happen was that btime was
truncated according to the granularity defined by filesystem (I've seen
this with both ext4 and xfs, but I guess others are also affected).
Since granularity can't be worse than a second, simply adjust the test
tolerance interval by 1 second.
