The tests for t/utime.t fail when using an older filesystem on linux. I'm using ext3 on this system and it fails to record the fractional seconds. dist/Time-HiRes/t/utime ........................................ # Failed test 'atime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 35. # got: '1' # expected: '1.111111111' # Failed test 'mtime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 36. # got: '2' # expected: '2.222222222' # Failed test 'atime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 44. # got: '1' # expected: '1.111111111' # Failed test 'mtime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 45. # got: '2' # expected: '2.222222222' # Failed test 'File 1 atime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 55. # got: '1' # expected: '1.111111111' # Failed test 'File 1 mtime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 56. # got: '2' # expected: '2.222222222' # Failed test 'File 2 atime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 60. # got: '1' # expected: '1.111111111' # Failed test 'File 2 mtime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 61. # got: '2' # expected: '2.222222222' # Failed test 'File 1 atime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 75. # '0.328052043914795' # < # '0.1' # Failed test 'File 1 mtime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 76. # '0.328052043914795' # < # '0.1' # Failed test 'File 2 atime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 80. # '0.328052043914795' # < # '0.1' # Failed test 'File 2 mtime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 81. # '0.328052043914795' # < # '0.1' # Looks like you failed 12 tests of 18.

How does one detect that the filesystem is ext3?

I've been looking for a good way to do it, best way I've found so far is reading /proc/mounts and finding the mount point for where the test is being run and checking it's type. I also suspect (but haven't tested yet) that a bunch of other filesystems are going to have similar problems.

Yeah, for the general case some guesswork for the filesystem timestamp resolution might be useful. But if there is some more definite way of detecting particular filesystems, it would not hurt. Can you do "df $filename" and get at the relevant more directly?

Looks like it'll give you the mount point to check, that combined with /proc/mounts should let you detect the file system and only enable the test on ones that support sub second times root@simcop2387:~/letsencrypt-lighttpd# df /tmp/tmp.Ki6yC1AIFr Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/root 44990064 34542948 9984028 78% / root@simcop2387:~/letsencrypt-lighttpd# cat /proc/mounts /dev/root / ext3 rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro,barrier=0,data=writeback 0 0 devtmpfs /dev devtmpfs rw,relatime,size=1021656k,nr_inodes=255414,mode=755 0 0 ...

Could you try running this in your system: perl -MFile::Temp=tempfile -wle 'my ($fh, $fn) = tempfile(UNLINK=>1); sub getfstype { my ($fn) = @_; open(my $df, "df $fn |"); my @df = <$df>; my $dev = +(split(" ", $df[1]))[0]; if (open(my $mounts, "/proc/mounts")) { while (<$mounts>){ my @m = split(" "); if ($m[0] eq $dev) { return $m[2] } } } return } print getfstype($fn); ' Show quoted text

Right. I had forgotten where this started.

If you could try the attached patch? It is against the Perl core (because that's the primary source of Time-HiRes now), so e.g. "git am" is probably not going to work well, but manual patching with "patch -p2 < 0001-*.patch" while in the Time-HiRes directory should work.

Helps but there's still some issues, it looks like the other tests in there are also expecting sub-second times, in particular it looks like the first four failures here are happening because $got_atime, and $got_mtime are both rounded up to 1, but $now is properly more precise. Since all of these tests seem to require the filesystem to support <1 sec precision, i think it would be best to skip the tests since while everything will function, it won't ever pass on the case of ext2/ext3 (i suspect other older filesystems too but don't have an exhaustive list). t/utime.t ......... 1/18 # Failed test 'File 1 atime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 112. # '0.955666065216064' # < # '0.1' # Failed test 'File 1 mtime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 113. # '0.955666065216064' # < # '0.1' # Failed test 'File 2 atime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 117. # '0.955666065216064' # < # '0.1' # Failed test 'File 2 mtime set correctly' # at t/utime.t line 118. # '0.955666065216064' # < # '0.1' # Failed test 'negative time error' # at t/utime.t line 125. # 'Time::HiRes::utime(-4, 2): negative time not invented yet at t/utime.t line 124. # ' # doesn't match '(?^:::utime$-4, 2\.22222$: negative time not invented yet)' # Failed test 'negative time error' # at t/utime.t line 132. # 'Time::HiRes::utime(1, -4): negative time not invented yet at t/utime.t line 131. # ' # doesn't match '(?^:::utime$1.11111, -4$: negative time not invented yet)' # Looks like you failed 6 tests of 18. t/utime.t .........

The version 1.9740 still fails on my box, see http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/1ecc29dc-84b6-11e6-be39-9d3809623efe The reason is : - tempfile() with template gives a file in the current directory which is on ext2 - tempfile() without template gives a file in /tmp which is on ext4 The attached patch solves this issue.

Offline, Jarkko asked me to take care of this patch, i.e., apply it to Perl 5 blead, as Time-HiRes is "blead upstream." I did so; see http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commitdiff/91dca83e. François, could you verify that Perl 5 blead PASSes for you on your mixed-filesystem architecture? If there are *still* problems with Time-HiRes, could you then open a bug ticket with 'perlbug'? I recommend that this ticket be closed. Thank you very much. Jim Keenan

I find this /proc/mounts and df magic a bit hacky and overengineered. You could instead touch a file twice with a subsecond sleep in between and check if you get subsecond stat() results like this: use Time::HiRes qw(sleep stat); sub have_subsecond_file_times { my @mtimes; for (1..2) { open my $f, '>', 'stattest'; push @mtimes, (stat $f)[9]; close $f; sleep .25 if $_ == 1; } my $delta = $mtimes[1] - $mtimes[0]; return $delta > 0 && $delta < 1; } This has the advantage that it doesn't depend on hard-coded assumptions on filesystem types and it works on systems other than Linux too.

Including using the more recent releases of Time-HiRes from CPAN? The newer releases should have fixed this problem. The older releases Perl you can install to macosx obviously still have older releases of Time-HiRes.

The Time::HiRes distribution is now primarily maintained in the Perl 5 core distribution ("blead upstream"). For backporting to any perl-5.26.3 release, we need to have a ticket in the core distribution's issue tracker that we can link to the "blockers for 5.26.3" ticket. Therefore, what I would ask you to do is the following: 1. Confirm that if you try to install the latest version available on CPAN (https://metacpan.org/release/Time-HiRes) against perl-5.26.2, it passes all its tests. (You don't actually have to install if you don't want to. You could, e.g., say 'test Time::HiRes' inside the 'cpan' shell utility.) 2. Assuming you get a PASS, please file a ticket via perlbug@perl.org with the following information: a. 'perl -V' information for your perl-5.26.2 installation. b. For failing test, output of: ##### cd t;./perl harness -v ../dist/Time-Hires/t/utime.t; cd - ##### c. Link to *this* rt.cpan.org ticket. d. Request to include in any perl-5.26.3 release. (I'm not guaranteeing that there will be such a release; it's up to the maintenance pumpking. But if you file such a ticket I will include it on the backport list.) Time::HiRes has moved on quite a bit since the release included in perl-5.26.2, so the backport may be tricky. ##### $ corelist -a Time::HiRes | grep 'v5.26.2' v5.26.2 1.9741 ##### Thank you very much.
