Subject: [PATCH] fs/nfsd: Fix creation time serialization order

From: Tavian Barnes <[email protected]>

In nfsd4_encode_fattr(), TIME_CREATE was being written out after all
other times. However, they should be written out in an order that
matches the bit flags in bmval1, which in this case are

#define FATTR4_WORD1_TIME_ACCESS (1UL << 15)
#define FATTR4_WORD1_TIME_CREATE (1UL << 18)
#define FATTR4_WORD1_TIME_DELTA (1UL << 19)
#define FATTR4_WORD1_TIME_METADATA (1UL << 20)
#define FATTR4_WORD1_TIME_MODIFY (1UL << 21)

so TIME_CREATE should come second.

I noticed this on a FreeBSD NFSv4.2 client, which supports creation
times. On this client, file times were weirdly permuted. With this
patch applied on the server, times looked normal on the client.

Fixes: e377a3e698fb ("nfsd: Add support for the birth time attribute")

I'm not especially familiar with this area of the protocol, but this
looks correct at first glance. I've applied this to nfsd-fixes for
v6.5.

Out of interest, what type of filesystem does your server export?

Great, thanks!

It's a btrfs filesystem.
