you can use stat lots of information file. output of stat struct stat. struct stat contains following member data:
           struct timespec st_atim;  /* time of last access */            struct timespec st_mtim;  /* time of last modification */            struct timespec st_ctim;  /* time of last status change */ is enough needs?
more information on stat can found in its man page.
