I'm now curious which syscalls are used by the glibc to implement utimensat() and stat(). On a ppc64le Fedora Rawhide running Linux kernel 5.4.8-200.fc31.ppc64le with glibc 2.30.9000, I get: $ sudo dnf install -y strace # if neeeded $ strace -o trace ./mtime (...) $ grep -E '^(utime|stat)' trace utimensat(AT_FDCWD, "testfn", [{tv_sec=4386268800, tv_nsec=0} /* 2108-12-30T00:00:00+0000 */, {tv_sec=4386268800, tv_nsec=0} /* 2108-12-30T00:00:00+0000 */], 0) = 0 stat("testfn", {st_mode=S_IFREG|000, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 => the glibc uses utimensat() and stat() syscalls. I get the same syscalls on a x64-64 Fedora Rawhide (Linux kernel 5.5.0-0.rc6.git3.1.fc32.x86_64, libc 2.30.9000): $ grep -E '^(utime|stat)' trace utimensat(AT_FDCWD, "testfn", [{tv_sec=4386268800, tv_nsec=0} /* 2108-12-30T01:00:00+0100 */, {tv_sec=4386268800, tv_nsec=0} /* 2108-12-30T01:00:00+0100 */], 0) = 0 stat("testfn", {st_mode=S_IFREG|000, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 Note: I use "uname -r" to get the Linux kernel version and I run directly "/lib64/libc.so.6" to get the glibc version. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39460> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
