@standaloneSA I don't believe POSIX requires that a read-only FS update atime on reads. Even if it does I don't think anyone conforms.
TIL: POSIX calls for a read-only filesystem to update the atime of files that are read. #WhatWhatWhat? http://ow.ly/rtCSG #Poppycock!

@thatcks I only bring it up because of this thread: http://www.bblisa.org/pipermail/bblisa/2013-December/003668.html … I thought it was weird, too. - View other replies

@standaloneSA The NFS client case is interesting. Server sets atime, not client, but noatime on client stops it from re-fetching the atime.

@standaloneSA you aren't writing to the file, you're writing to the metadata for the file. Unless you aren't. Then, dirty pool. -
@garyrogers But the metadata is contained within the filesystem. If you don't know why a filesystem is mounted ro, then it's dangerous. -
@standaloneSA who's more filesystem, the file system or the files that are systemed?#JediSysAdmin
