This has the benefit of allowing filesystems to optimize away a lot metadata updates, down to around 1 per jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes. Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the client decide when to invalidate the cache. Even with NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support a change attribute and are subject to the same problems with timestamp granularity. Other applications have similar issues with timestamps (e.g backup applications). If fine-grained timestamps were always used, that would improve the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates. What is needed is a way to only use fine-grained timestamps when they are being actively queried. Use the (unused) top bit in inode->i_ctime_nsec as a flag that indicates whether the current timestamps have been queried via stat() or the like. When it's set, allow the update to use a fine-grained timestamp iff it's necessary to make the ctime show a different value. If it has been queried, then first see whether the current coarse time is later than the existing ctime. If it is, accept that value. If it isn't, then get a fine-grained timestamp and attempt to stamp the inode ctime with that value. If that races with another concurrent stamp, then abandon the update and take the new value without retrying. Filesystems can opt into this by setting the FS_MGTIME fstype flag. Others should be unaffected (other than being subject to the same floor value as multigrain filesystems).
