Subject: [PATCH 2/2] vfs: fix delegated timestamp handling in setattr_copy()
Date: Tue, 22 Jul 2025 14:52:28 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250722-nfsd-testing-v1-2-31321c7fc97f@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250722-nfsd-testing-v1-0-31321c7fc97f@kernel.org>

There are a couple of problems with delegated timestamp updates via
setattr:

1/ the ia_ctime is always clobbered by notify_change(), so setting the
ia_ctime to the same value as the ia_mtime in nfsd4_decode_fattr4()
doesn't work.

2/ while it does test the ctime's validity vs. the existing ctime and
current_time(), the same is not done for the atime or mtime. The spec
requires this.

Add a new setattr_copy_delegts() function that handles updating the
timestamps whenever ATTR_DELEG is set. For both atime and mtime,
validate and clamp the value to current_time(), and then set it. If the
mtime gets updated, also update the ctime.

Fixes: 7f2c86cba3c5 ("fs: handle delegated timestamps in setattr_copy_mgtime")
