What steps will reproduce the bug?
Set low limits or high FILE_COUNT
, run the following:
import fs from 'node:fs';
import { readFile } from 'node:fs/promises';
const OUTPUT_DIRECTORY = "/tmp/emfile-check";
const FILE_COUNT = 150_000; // adjust this according to ulimit -n, ulimit -Hn, /proc/sys/fs/file-max, etc.
function generateFiles() {
fs.rmSync(OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, { recursive: true, force: true, maxRetries: 8192 });
fs.mkdirSync(OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, { recursive: true });
for (let i = 0; i < FILE_COUNT; i++) {
const fileName = `file_${i}.js`;
const fileContent = `// This is file ${i}`;
fs.writeFileSync(`${OUTPUT_DIRECTORY}/${fileName}`, fileContent);
}
}
function generateEmFileError() {
return Promise.all(
Array.from({ length: FILE_COUNT }, (_, i) => {
const fileName = `file_${i}.js`;
return readFile(`${OUTPUT_DIRECTORY}/${fileName}`);
})
);
}
console.log(`Generating ${FILE_COUNT} files in ${OUTPUT_DIRECTORY}...`);
generateFiles();
console.log("Checking that this number of files would cause an EMFILE error...");
await generateEmFileError()
.then(() => {
throw new Error("Test failure: not enough files to encounter EMFILE.");
})
.catch(error => {
if (error.code === "EMFILE") {
console.log("Successfully got intentional EMFILE:", error.message);
} else if (error.code === "ENFILE") {
console.log("Successfully got intentional ENFILE:", error.message);
} else {
console.error("Failed with unknown error:", error.message);
throw error;
}
})
.finally(() => {
console.log(`Attempting to remove ${OUTPUT_DIRECTORY}`);
fs.rmSync(OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, { recursive: true, force: true, maxRetries: 8192 });
console.log(`Successfully removed ${OUTPUT_DIRECTORY}`);
});
How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?
Might be flaky depending on system configuration (under some conditions exhausting fd limits may render system unresponsive).
What is the expected behavior? Why is that the expected behavior?
Generating 150000 files in /tmp/emfile-check...
Checking that this number of files would cause an EMFILE error...
Successfully got intentional ENFILE: ENFILE: file table overflow, open '/tmp/emfile-check/file_63275.js'
Attempting to remove /tmp/emfile-check
Successfully removed /tmp/emfile-check
We should encounter the ENFILE via generateEmFileError
function, catch the error, and remove the directory. Directory removal might encounter errors due to unfinished jobs, but it should retry with 100ms delay 8192 times (more than 13 minutes).
What do you see instead?
Generating 150000 files in /tmp/emfile-check...
Checking that this number of files would cause an EMFILE error...
Successfully got intentional ENFILE: ENFILE: file table overflow, open '/tmp/emfile-check/file_63275.js'

Additional information
According to the docs, it must continue in case of ENFILE
.
