Not sure this is a bug, but I can't find any previous discussion about this particular case.

Calling fd_filestat_set_times with a preopened directory fd returns badf. I'm aware there is a conformance test that assert certain fd_* calls should fail with dir fds, but it's not immediately clear to me why this should be the case for fd_filestat_set_times and preopened directories.

Test Case

#include <dirent.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int main() {
    struct timespec times[2];

    times[0].tv_nsec = UTIME_NOW;
    times[1].tv_nsec = UTIME_NOW;

    int ret = futimens(3, times);
    if (ret != 0 ) {
        perror("futimens");
        return 1;
    }

    return 0;
}

Steps to Reproduce

Compile the snippet with wasi-sdk and run with Wasmtime, preopen a directory.

Expected Results

It should be possible to set times on a directory.

Actual Results

fd_filestat_set_times return badf.

I can submit a PR for cap-std if folks are OK with this behavior.

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you here. Can you clarify how to reproduce this issue? I checked out the version you listed, compiled the above program with wasi-sdk-21.0, and ran cargo run run --dir . a.out locally. I was unable to reproduce a failure locally at least.

I was able to reproduce the error you're seeing on ubuntu-20.04.

Given that you're attempting to use utime on a dir, should you use utimensat instead of futimens? The purpose of the OFlags::PATH flag in fd_filestat_set_times is to avoid actually opening the file, which I think is the correct behavior here. Here's my modified version of your test program that exits normally for me:

#include <dirent.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int main() {
        struct timespec times[2];

        times[0].tv_nsec = UTIME_NOW;
        times[1].tv_nsec = UTIME_NOW;

        int ret = utimensat(3, ".", times, 0);
        if (ret != 0 ) {
                perror("utimensat");
                return 1;
        }

        return 0;
}

Thinking about this more, my response above only tells you how to avoid the problem, given that preopens are opened with O_PATH. Sorry about that!

I'm going to discuss this more with @sunfishcode, and see if we can come up with a recommendation for how best to proceed.
