+Subject: [PATCH] attr: fix utime for symlink
+
+unfs3 has an old defect that it can not change the timestamps of a
+symlink file because it only uses utime(), which will follow the
+symlink. This will not cause an error if the symlink points to an
+existent file. But under some special situation, such as installing
+a rpm package, rpm tool will create the symlink first and try to
+modify the timestamps of it, when the target file is non-existent.
+This will cause an ESTALE error. Making rpm tool ignore this error
+is a solution, but not the best one. An acceptable approach is
+Making unfs3 support lutimes(), which can modify the symlink file
+itself. Considering not every system support this function, so a
+function checking is necessary.
+
+Upstream-Status: Submitted [https://github.com/unfs3/unfs3/pull/35]
