--- Comment #9 from Ravishankar N <ravishankar at redhat.com> ---
Vijay,

What is happening is when the empty file is  created on the down brick (after
bringing it up) as a part of entry self-heal, it changes time stamp of the
parent directory.

The patch for this bug basically handles fixing timestamps during metadata
self-heal. We need to do it for entry self-heals too. But given it is a day one
issue, you could probably raise a separate bug for it that can be targeted for
the next release.

A simple reproducer would be:
-create 1x2 volume
-create a 'dir' from mount
-kill one brick
-touch 'dir/file'
-bring back brick after some time
-after healing, mtime and ctime of 'dir' will be different, while it should be
same.
