git client plugin creates unlimited directories in /tmp/ for polling the scm

    Details

    • Type: Bug
    • Status: Closed (View Workflow)
    • Priority: Major
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Component/s: git-client-plugin
    • Labels:

    • Environment:

      Description

      For every polling cycle the git client creates a new directory for storing the credentials in /tmp/ but forgets to delete the directory itself after finishing the polling.

      This leads to reaching the system limit of maximum numbers of subdirectories after some time which will break the polling cycle.

      • This results in jenkins not starting builds on scm changes.
      • The normal build process is not affected.
      • This could affect some other functionality using the tmp directory and creating files there.

      This behaviour was introduced with JENKINS-22039.

          [Fix JENKINS-23017] delete the tmp workdir also

          In order to not leave unlimited directories created by the polling cycle
          in the tmp directory which results in reaching the system limit for
          subdirectory numbers we should also delete the workdir itself and not ony its
          contents.
