v2:
- prepend patches to add missing ctime updates
- add simple_rename_timestamp helper function
- rename ctime accessor functions as inode_get_ctime/inode_set_ctime_*
- drop individual inode_ctime_set_{sec,nsec} helpers

I've been working on a patchset to change how the inode->i_ctime is
accessed in order to give us conditional, high-res timestamps for the
ctime and mtime. struct timespec64 has unused bits in it that we can use
to implement this. In order to do that however, we need to wrap all
accesses of inode->i_ctime to ensure that bits used as flags are
appropriately handled.

The patchset starts with reposts of some missing ctime updates that I
spotted in the tree. It then adds a new helper function for updating the
timestamp after a successful rename, and new ctime accessor
infrastructure.

The bulk of the patchset is individual conversions of different
subsysteme to use the new infrastructure. Finally, the patchset renames
the i_ctime field to __i_ctime to help ensure that I didn't miss
anything.

This should apply cleanly to linux-next as of this morning.

Most of this conversion was done via 5 different coccinelle scripts, run
in succession, with a large swath of by-hand conversions to clean up the
remainder.

The coccinelle scripts that were used are below:

A couple of other things I should note:

If you sent me an Acked-by or Reviewed-by in the previous set, then I
tried to keep it on the patch here, since the respun patches are mostly
just renaming stuff from v1. Let me know if I've missed any.

I've also pushed the pile to my tree as this tag:

    https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux.git/tag/?h=ctime.20230705

In case that's easier to work with.

Are there any preliminary patches showing what you want your introduced
accessors to turn into?  It is hard to judge the sanity of the
introduction of wrappers without seeing what the wrappers are ultimately
going to do.

I have a draft version of the multigrain patches on top of the wrapper
conversion I've already posted in my "mgctime-experimental" branch:

    https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux.git/log/?h=mgctime-experimental

The rationale is best explained in this changelog:

    https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux.git/commit/?h=mgctime-experimental&id=face437a144d3375afb7f70c233b0644b4edccba

The idea will be to enable this on a per-fs basis.

After review by Jan and others, and Jan's ext4 rework, the diff on top
of the series I posted a couple of days ago is below. I don't really
want to spam everyone with another ~100 patch v3 series, but I can if
you think that's best.

Christian, what would you like me to do here?

Applied to the vfs.ctime branch of the vfs/vfs.git tree.
Patches in the vfs.ctime branch should appear in linux-next soon.

Please report any outstanding bugs that were missed during review in a
new review to the original patch series allowing us to drop it.

It's encouraged to provide Acked-bys and Reviewed-bys even though the
patch has now been applied. If possible patch trailers will be updated.

Note that commit hashes shown below are subject to change due to rebase,
trailer updates or similar. If in doubt, please check the listed branch.

I picked up the series from the list and folded the fixups you posted
here into the respective fs conversion patches. I hope that helps you
avoid a resend. You should have received a separate "thank you" mail for
all of this.

To each patch that I folded one of the fixlets from below into I added a
git note that records a link to your mail here and the respective patch
hunk from this mail that I folded into the patch. git.kernel.org will
show notes by default. For example,
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs.git/commit/?h=vfs.ctime&id=8b0e3c2e99004609a16ba145bcbdfdddb78e220e
should show you the note I added. You can also fetch them via
git fetch $remote refs/notes/*:refs/notes/*
(You probably know that ofc but jic.) if you're interested.

Based on v6.5-rc1 as of today.

Btw, both b4 and patchwork somehow treat the series in weird was.
IOW, based on the message id of the cover letter I was able to pull most
messages except for:

[07/92] fs: add ctime accessors infrastructure
[08/92] fs: new helper: simple_rename_timestamp
[92/92] fs: rename i_ctime field to __i_ctime

which I pulled in separately. Not sure what the cause of this is.

Many thanks!!! I'll get to work rebasing the multigrain timestamp series
on top of that.

Good to know.

I ended up doing the send in two phases: one for the cover letter and
infrastructure patches that went to everyone, and one for the per-
subsystem patches that went do individual maintainers and lists.

I suspect that screwed up the message IDs somehow. Hopefully I won't
need to do a posting like that again soon, but I'll pay closer attention
to the message id handling next time.

Thanks again!
