------- Comment #3 from nicolas.geo...@normalesup.org 2010-08-22 07:49 CST ------- They have a similar purpose, but they do not work the same way at all. My patch (comment #2) politely asks the kernel not to update the atime of opened files. It only works if the O_NOATIME flags exists on that particular platform but has no other drawbacks. AFAIK, the patch on rsync-patches.git explicitly puts back the atime to what it was. It has the drawback of updating the ctime instead. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
