2.4.2 bug in handling vfat?

2.4.2 bug in handling vfat?

[Ulrich Lauther]

when I unmount and remount a vfat file system, the time stamp of a recently
created file changes by one hour.
This does not happen on the same system when running 2.2.17.

Script started on Mon Apr  9 13:59:26 2001
sh-2.03# uname -a
Linux tahiti 2.4.2 #7 Mon Mar 26 23:50:57 CEST 2001 i686 unknown
sh-2.03# touch /dos/fudge
sh-2.03# ls -l /dos/fudge
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root     root            0 Apr  9 13:59 /dos/fudge
sh-2.03# umount /dos
sh-2.03# mount /dos
sh-2.03# ls -l /dos/fudge
-rwxrwxrwx   1 root     root            0 Apr  9 14:59 /dos/fudge
                                                 ^^^^^^
The relevant fstab entry is:
/dev/hda1      /dos        vfat     noauto,umask=0,defaults  1    0

the clock was set after booting using clock -s -u

Is the descibed behaviour a known problem?

Hi,

I think that it is the bug of FAT-fs.
Please try the following patch.

Thanks
