Is there an existing linux userspace interface for accessing the microsecond or nanosecond level (a|m|c)times of filesystems that support them (e.g. ext4, xfs)? and possibly also the generation counters used by NFS.

I notice sys_utimes is able to set microsecond (c|a|m)times but I can't find an associated interface to read them (I've googled to no avail).

(also noticing freebsd and darwin's struct stat contains struct timespec for these as well as an st_gen field - although I do realise how incredibly difficult it would be to add these to linux's struct stat).
