Hi, sometimes some tests fails, because mtime/ctime or atime is not correct set. The problem are the VFS layer and the different filesystems, they all have a different understand from when which field is to change.
For example, if you truncate a zero length file to zero, VFS only send a notifier that ctime has to be updated. ext2 will also update mtime, reiserfs not. Is there a document describing the behaviour, to which I could point our filesystem experts ?
