[New-bugs-announce] [issue45310] test_multiprocessing_forkserver: test_shared_memory_basics() failed with FileExistsError: [Errno 17] File exists: '/test01_tsmb'

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org>:

AMD64 Fedora Stable LTO + PGO 3.10 (build 357):
https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/651/builds/357

First test_multiprocessing_forkserver failed, then test_multiprocessing_spawn, then test_multiprocessing_fork.

I confirm that these tests fail if the /test01_tsmb shared memory exists.

The test is supposed to unlink the shared memory once the test completes:

    def test_shared_memory_basics(self):
        sms = shared_memory.SharedMemory('test01_tsmb', create=True, size=512)
        self.addCleanup(sms.unlink)

Maybe the whole process was killed while the test was running.

I removed it manually:

    sudo ./python -c "import _posixshmem; _posixshmem.shm_unlink('/test01_tsmb')"

Logs:
