That's because if the filesystem supports lazytime, it will have ignored the ->dirty_inode(inode, I_DIRTY_TIME) notification when the timestamp was modified in memory. Currently this is accomplished by calling mark_inode_dirty_sync() from __writeback_single_inode(). However, this has the unfortunate side effect of also putting the inode the writeback list. That's not appropriate in this case, since the inode is already being written. That causes the inode to remain dirty after a sync. Normally that's just wasteful, as it causes the inode to be written twice. But when fscrypt is used this bug also partially breaks the FS_IOC_REMOVE_ENCRYPTION_KEY ioctl, as the ioctl reports that files are still in-use when they aren't. For more details, see the original report at https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200306004555.GB225345@gmail.com Fix this by calling ->dirty_inode(inode, I_DIRTY_SYNC) directly instead of mark_inode_dirty_sync(). This fixes xfstest generic/580 when lazytime is enabled. A later patch will introduce a ->lazytime_expired method to cleanly separate out the lazytime expiration case, in particular for XFS which uses the VFS-level dirtiness tracking only for lazytime. But that's separate from fixing this bug. Also, note that XFS will incorrectly ignore the I_DIRTY_SYNC notification from __writeback_single_inode() both before and after this patch, as I_DIRTY_TIME was already cleared in i_state. Later patches will fix this separate bug.
