From eb3635dd1f3f5ff9e0bdf7ec4bf14c78cbc4a015 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NRK Date: Sat, 28 Jan 2023 21:34:29 +0600 Subject: swclock: fix codeql warning and upgrade to futimens this was reported by codeql's scan as a TOCTOU bug. while that's true in theory, i don't believe it would've had any practical effect. a better justification for this change might be the fact that it upgrades from `utime` (which is depreciated by POSIX [0]) to `futimens`.
