>From the commit above: "It seems there is time drift between ktime_get_real_ts() and current_kernel_time()" Its more of a granularity difference. current_kernel_time() returns the cached time at the last tick, where as ktime_get_real_ts() reads the clocksource hardware and returns the immediate time. Filesystems usually use the cached time (similar to CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE), for performance reasons, as touching the clocksource takes time. thanks -john ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Linux-f2fs-devel mailing list Linux-f2fs-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-f2fs-devel
