H A Dvfs.rstcbfecb92 Thu Aug 25 05:06:57 CDT 2022 Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> fs: record I_DIRTY_TIME even if inode already has I_DIRTY_INODE

Currently the I_DIRTY_TIME will never get set if the inode already has
I_DIRTY_INODE with assumption that it supersedes I_DIRTY_TIME. That's
true, however ext4 will only update the on-disk inode in
->dirty_inode(), not on actual writeback. As a result if the inode
already has I_DIRTY_INODE state by the time we get to
__mark_inode_dirty() only with I_DIRTY_TIME, the time was already filled
into on-disk inode and will not get updated until the next I_DIRTY_INODE
update, which might never come if we crash or get a power failure.

The problem can be reproduced on ext4 by running xfstest generic/622
with -o iversion mount option.

Fix it by allowing I_DIRTY_TIME to be set even if the inode already has
I_DIRTY_INODE. Also make sure that the case is properly handled in
writeback_single_inode() as well. Additionally changes in
xfs_fs_dirty_inode() was made to accommodate for I_DIRTY_TIME in flag.

Thanks Jan Kara for suggestions on how to make this work properly.
