on Jul 4, 2020 I'm not able to reproduce. As an example:
$ node --expose_gc > fs.promises.truncate('/tmp/x.txt').then(_ => gc()) // x.txt exists Promise { <pending> } >No warnings.
@sheepa I'm going to close this but I can reopen if you post steps to reproduce.

on Jul 7, 2020 @sheepa ... I'll be opening a PR to backport the fix to 12.x soon but it will take a while for that to land in a release. You can work around the issue for now by using the
ftruncate()method instead using the exact same pattern used in the fix:async function myTruncate(path, len) { const fd = await open(path, 'r+'); return ftruncate(fd, len).finally(fd.close.bind(fd)); }

eadc385 references #28858 as the PR and that's marked semver-major so it will be ignored by our tooling (e.g. branch-diff) and processes when evaluating what could be backported.
@richardlau ... yeah, I spotted that. This one commit is not semver-major. I'm working on a backport PR now for 12.x but github is giving me the Unicorn of Sadness at the moment. Will open as soon as the site becomes responsive again

What steps will reproduce the bug?
fsPromises.truncate(path) will result in a warning a few seconds later:
(node:1387179) Warning: Closing file descriptor 22 on garbage collection- Using the callback truncateawait new Promise((res, rej) => { fs.truncate(file, (err, ret) => { if(err) rej(err); else res(ret) }) })works fine without such warning.How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?
Every time.
What is the expected behavior?
Not having this warning.
What do you see instead?
