Subject: e2fsck: Skip time-based checks if the time looks insane or broken_system_clock
X-Git-Tag: v1.41.12~14
X-Git-Url: http://git.kernel.org/?p=fs%2Fext2%2Fe2fsprogs.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=177839e2454dcc298244481da9c72a19b41836be

e2fsck: Skip time-based checks if the time looks insane or broken_system_clock

There are broken embedded devices that have system clocks that always
reset to January 1, 1970 whenever they boot (even if no power is
lost).  There are also systems that have super cheap clock crystals
that can be very inaccurate.  So if the option broken_system_clock is
given, disable all time based checks.  E2fsck will also try to detect
incorrect system clock times, and automatically mark the system clock
as insane.
