Description

Motivation

While tracking down the root cause for #131447 we encountered a lot of error messages like:

Jun 27 09:10:06 openqa openqa-gru[22285]: mktemp: failed to create file via template ‘/tmp/tmp.XXXXXXXXXX’: No space left on device
Jun 27 09:10:37 openqa openqa-gru[22774]: mktemp: failed to create file via template ‘/tmp/tmp.XXXXXXXXXX’: No space left on device
Jun 27 09:11:27 openqa openqa-gru[23797]: mktemp: failed to create file via template ‘/tmp/tmp.XXXXXXXXXX’: No space left on device
Jun 27 09:13:38 openqa openqa-gru[26670]: mktemp: failed to create file via template ‘/tmp/tmp.XXXXXXXXXX’: No space left on device
Jun 27 09:13:38 openqa openqa-gru[26684]: mktemp: failed to create file via template ‘/tmp/tmp.XXXXXXXXXX’: No space left on device

These are very hard to trace back to the code that triggered them. If we simply used more unique templates like
/tmp/tmp.webui.obs.rsync.XXXXXXXXXX and the like it would be much easier.

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: All temporary files/directories created by openQA including use unique templates

There's still an mktemp without a template in openqa-label-known-issues that needs to be addressed.

https://github.com/os-autoinst/scripts/pull/239 Use a unique tempfile template in openqa-label-known-issues

Now I only need to check why the runcli-errorlog-XXXX tempfiles aren't cleaned up.

errorlog=$(mktemp -t runcli-errorlog-XXXX)
# shellcheck disable=SC2064
trap "rm $errorlog" EXIT

This code works in a small example script, but apparently not from openqa-investigate.

Looks good. What's missing?

I'm still working on the leftover runcli-errorlog-XXXX files.
Also in os-autoinst I found one instance of tempfile without a template in consoles/sshVirtsh.pm.
