From: Operating system: Linux PHP version: trunk-SVN-2011-03-09 (SVN) Package: Compile Failure Bug Type: Bug Bug description:race condition in shtool's mkdir -p implementation. AND shtool 2.0.8
Description: ------------ Previous bug #51076 http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51076 was fixed by: svn commit r295225 ( http://svn.php.net/viewvc?view=revision&revision=295225 ) but later, commit r295230 ( http://svn.php.net/viewvc? view=revision&revision=295230) updated shtool to version 2.0.8 without backporting the previous patch. (In upstream, nothing changed regarding mkdir between 2.0.6 and 2.0.8) And so, the race condition with -j>1 is still there. (In my case, it appeared during the "make install" step processing the installation of the extensions) Error was: "mkdir: cannot create directory ... : File exists" So, the patch in r295225 should be reapplied to shtool 2.0.8. In a second time, why not replacing all the mkdir code block of shtool by something like: if opt_p = no: mkdir ... chmod ... chown ... chgrp ... ... else: mkdir -p ... chmod -R ... chown -R ... chgrp -R ... ... That would be safer I think ... -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54205&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54205&r=mysqlcfg
