[PATCH] xfsrestore: use utimensat() to provide atime/mtime with ns resolution

Brian Foster
2014-09-04T16:38:35Z

xfsdump encodes and stores the full atime and mtime for each file with
nanosecond resolution. xfsrestore uses utime() to set the times of each
file that is restored. The latter supports resolution of 1 second, thus
sub-second timestamp data is lost on restore.

Add the associated configure checks for and use utimensat() when
available to restore timestamps with nanosecond resolution. Create a new
helper to facilitate conditional support for utimensat().

I'm not totally sure on the configure bits here... it's mostly copied
from xfsprogs and tweaked appropriately. It seems to work, at least. ;)
