Not yet,
|
|
The ext4 file creation time only accesable from the kernel at the mome=
|
|
nt.
|
|
There were discussion
|
|
to make this information avaliable via xattr before, but was rejected,
|
|
since most people
|
|
agree that making this info avalibele via stat() is more standard. Howe=
|
|
ver
|
|
modifying stat() would imply
|
|
big interface change. thus no action has been taken yet.
