Severity: important
Tags: patch

When using utimes() to set the timestamps on a file, they
always come out as the epoch (actually 1 second past the epoch :).
Reason is a thinko regarding operator precedence in C, patch below.

Subject: glibc utimes glitch with coreutils 'touch'

> Here are the symptoms of the utimes failure I mentioned recently.

You're suffering from Debian bug 202243 ("utimes() broken"); see
<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=202243>.  The patch
proposed there won't entirely fix the bug, though, since it causes
'utimes' to round instead of truncate.  Historically, utimes truncated
when it couldn't store the microseconds, and the coreutils 'touch' code in
<http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2003-08/msg00016.html>
relies on this truncation.

I tried to find out why glibc changed from truncation to rounding.
Ulrich Drepper checked in a new Linux version of utimes on 2003-07-12,
to support newer Linux kernels that have utimes support.  On older
kernels this new code attempted to round, even though the usual
practice with timestamps is to truncate when going to a lower
resolution.  I don't know why rounding was introduced here.

(Personally I wish Linux would let me set the file's timestamp to the
nearest nanosecond, as that would avoid all this mess entirely.)

I'll submit an alternate patch to coreutils so that it works around
this glibc glitch.  The simplest workaround is to not invoke utimes
when building with glibc; perhaps I can improve on that, but I don't
know.

I propose the following patch to fix glibc:

2003-08-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

	Revert to utimes's previous (i.e., pre-2003-07-12) behavior of
	truncating fractional parts of timestamps that it can't use,
        instead of attempting to round.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/utimes.c (__utimes):
	Fix actime and modtime computation to truncate microseconds
	rather than attempting to round.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/futimes.c (__futimes): Likewise.
	* sysdeps/posix/utimes.c (__utimes): Likewise.

We don't have to condemn the coreutils always
to use the inferior utime interface on glibc systems.
Instead, I'm adding a configure-time test of utimes, so that
if it works, coreutils will use it.

Here's the C program it'll compile and run.
So far it compiles and exits successfully on all systems listed
except for the one with Debian libc6 version 2.3.2-1.

Be sure to allow overriding the test in the usual way,
so the build system's properties can be overridden when cross-compiling glibc...

Thanks,

If you installed the patch in

then you should be OK, but if it's some other patch then I'd like to
know what it was.

My previous mention is insufficient.  It's not your patch, Jakub's
2003-07-31 modification, rouding one (the current debian glibc 2.3.2
is based on Mid of July).  Because I found the below sentence in
SuSv3.  It says it may be rounding (or am I missing?):

48734 DESCRIPTION
48735              The utimes( ) function shall set the access and modification times of the file pointed to by the path
48736              argument to the value of the times argument. The utimes( ) function allows time specifications
48737              accurate to the microsecond.
48738              For utimes( ), the times argument is an array of timeval structures. The first array member
48739              represents the date and time of last access, and the second member represents the date and time
48740              of last modification. The times in the timeval structure are measured in seconds and
48741              microseconds since the Epoch, although rounding toward the nearest second may occur.

your reffered "Historically, utimes truncated when it couldn't store
the microseconds" is BSD's original implementation?  Yes, the latest
FreeBSD cvs says:

                tv[0].tv_sec = times->actime;
                tv[1].tv_sec = times->modtime;
                tv[0].tv_usec = tv[1].tv_usec = 0;

Yes.  I don't know where that phrase in the standard about "rounding"
came from.  Quite possibly it's just a glitch in the standard, and
"truncating" was intended.

Historically, time-related code has always truncated.  For example,
the time() system call, "ls -l", and "date" all truncate.  There are
good reasons for preferring truncation to rounding in timestamps,
despite the greater numeric error.  For example, truncating makes it
easier to answer the question "Was that file modified before
midnight?" when you are looking at lower-resolution timestamps.  And
double-truncation is exact, whereas double-rounding can introduce
extra errors.

When 'utimes()' rounds, it can break applications like 'cp -p' and
'make', because it can cause file timestamps to be in the future
when the timestamps are copied from just-created files.

The current coreutils CVS works around this problem by avoiding
'utimes' if it detects that 'utimes' rounds.  This is unfortunate,
because it disables support for sub-second timestamps in 'cp -p' under
glibc; but at least it doesn't break 'make'.

Please fix this problem by applying the patch in
<http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2003-08/msg00062.html>.
That will enable coreutils 'cp' to support sub-second timestamps.

Thanks.

Exactly.  I fully agreed with your opinion.  I applied.

Jakub, please take care this problem and show the flag to apply Paul's
patch?  I believe there are no point to object his patch.
