2022-01-18 10:18:44 Kleber Sacilotto de Souza description [ Impact ] Commit 35e8d405b009 "fs: export an inode_update_time helper" (upstream commit e60feb445fce9e51c1558a6aa7faf9dd5ded533b), applied to hirsure:linux via upstream stable broke the build of aufs. The function 'update_time()' is used by aufs and was exported before by a SAUCE patch (0d3312035010 "UBUNTU: SAUCE: Import aufs driver"). [ Fix ] The proposed fix is to patch aufs to use the new function name. There is no functional change. [ Test ] Build a 5.11 kernel with AUFS enabled. [ Where problems could occur ] By keeping the new function name, if any other internal or external module is using 'update_time()' their build will also fail. This will need to be address case-by-case.
