Commit f4bb537 has GNU testsuite comparison: |

could you please document the fact that this option doesn't do anything ? |
Sorry for the late reply. In short, taking the test https:/tavianator/bfs/blob/main/tests/gnu/ignore_readdir_race.sh as an example, during the execution of Wirte upI usually start by checking the GNU tests and the BFS tests for this parameter.
cd "$TEST"
"$XTOUCH" foo bar
# -links 1 forces a stat() call, which will fail for the second file
invoke_bfs . -mindepth 1 -ignore_readdir_race -links 1 -exec "$TESTS/remove-sibling.sh" {} \;
#!/usr/bin/env bash
for file in "${1%/*}"/*; do
if [ "$file" != "$1" ]; then
rm "$file"
exit $?
fi
done
exit 1I then ran the script on my local machine: Then I realized that our implementation didn't seem to have this problem in the same test. First we jump here from the main function, then turns to the parser fn do_find<'a>(args: &[&str], deps: &'a dyn Dependencies<'a>) -> Result<u64, Box<dyn Error>> {
let paths_and_matcher = parse_args(args)?;
...
}After getting all the matchers that meet the parameters, use found_count += process_dir(
&path,
&paths_and_matcher.config,
deps,
&*paths_and_matcher.matcher,
&mut quit,
);Here, while let Some(result) = it.next() {
match result {
Err(err) => {
uucore::error::set_exit_code(1);
writeln!(&mut stderr(), "Error: {dir}: {err}").unwrap()
}
Ok(entry) => {
let mut matcher_io = matchers::MatcherIO::new(deps);
if matcher.matches(&entry, &mut matcher_io) {
found_count += 1;
}
...
}
}
}Finally, there is the part of ...
match command.status() {
Ok(status) => status.success(),
Err(e) => {
writeln!(&mut stderr(), "Failed to run {}: {}", self.executable, e).unwrap();
false
}
}

oh, sorry, i just meant "in the code. explaining why it isn't doing anything" :) |

The "race condition" that this flag is talking about is another command simultaneously modifying the directory while find is reading it, something like
tavianator@graphene $ touch {1..10000}
tavianator@graphene $ find -size 1 & rm ./*
[1] 65991
find: ‘./10000’: No such file or directory
[1] + 65991 exit 1 find -size 1
tavianator@graphene $ touch {1..10000}
tavianator@graphene $ find -ignore_readdir_race -size 1 & rm ./*
[1] 66034
[1] + 66034 done find -ignore_readdir_race -size 1

Sorry, I forgot about this. The race condition does happen when deleting a large number of files, and I'm rewriting a piece of code that implements this feature.

Terribly sorry, I did misunderstand the meaning of readdir_race.
I rechecked the code and read the GNU documentation. The -ignore_readdir_race parameter requires a way to suppress file not found errors globally in the software, so I need to complete #15 to centralize the error handling logic before I can return here.
I will finish them as soon as possible. :)

@hanbings do you have an update on this ? thanks :) |
This PR will pass the test about race conditions in BFS test. Our implementation does not seem to cause race conditions, so only add
Configrelated to-ignore_readdir_raceand-noignore_readdir_racewithout making other logical changes.Closes #377
