Date: Mon, 4 Jan 2021 16:54:41 -0800 From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@...nel.org> To: linux-fsdevel@...r.kernel.org Cc: linux-ext4@...r.kernel.org, linux-f2fs-devel@...ts.sourceforge.net, linux-xfs@...r.kernel.org, Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu>, Christoph Hellwig <hch@....de> Subject: [PATCH 02/13] gfs2: don't worry about I_DIRTY_TIME in gfs2_fsync() From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@...gle.com> The I_DIRTY_TIME flag is primary used within the VFS, and there's no reason for ->fsync() implementations to do anything with it. This is because when !datasync, the VFS will expire dirty timestamps before calling ->fsync(). (See vfs_fsync_range().) This turns I_DIRTY_TIME into I_DIRTY_SYNC. Therefore, change gfs2_fsync() to not check for I_DIRTY_TIME.
