REVIEW: https://review.gluster.org/20286 (performance/quick-read: provide an invalidation based on ctime) posted (#1) for review on master by Raghavendra G
COMMIT: https://review.gluster.org/20286 committed in master by "Raghavendra G" <rgowdapp> with a commit message- performance/quick-read: provide an invalidation based on ctime Quick-read by default uses mtime to identify changes to file data. However there are applications like rsync which explicitly set mtime making it unreliable for the purpose of identifying change in file content. Since ctime also changes when content of a file changes and it cannot be set explicitly, it becomes suitable for identifying staleness of cached data. This option makes quick-read to prefer ctime over mtime to validate its cache. However, using ctime can result in false positives as ctime changes with just attribute changes like permission without changes to file data. So, use this option only when mtime is not reliable. credits to Kotresh Hiremath Ravishankar <khiremat> for suggestion on using ctime instead of mtime.
