From 33dddac00ba8d9b72cf21b8698504077eb3c23ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anselm Kruis Date: Fri, 23 Feb 2018 02:37:38 +0100 Subject: bpo-30028: make test.support.temp_cwd() fork-safe (GH-1066) Make test.support.temp_cwd() fork-safe. The context manager test.support.temp_cwd() no longer removes the temporary directory when executing in a process other than the parent it entered from. If a forked child exits the context manager it won't do the cleanup. --- Lib/test/support/__init__.py | 6 +++++- Lib/test/test_support.py | 29 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Misc/ACKS | 1 + 3 files changed, 35 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/Lib/test/support/__init__.py b/Lib/test/support/__init__.py index 6c9e31a..b4269f4 100644 --- a/Lib/test/support/__init__.py +++ b/Lib/test/support/__init__.py @@ -948,10 +948,14 @@ def temp_dir(path=None, quiet=False): warnings.warn(f'tests may fail, unable to create ' f'temporary directory {path!r}: {exc}', RuntimeWarning, stacklevel=3) + if dir_created: + pid = os.getpid() try: yield path finally: - if dir_created: + # In case the process forks, let only the parent remove the + # directory.
