Bug description:
Some of our build machines have recently started failing builds. It
was noted that all the machines that fail the build are running the
most recent kernel 5.4.0-109-generic #123~18.04.1-Ubuntu.
The following command was created to minimally reproduce the issue:
$ while true; do sudo /usr/local/scripts/drop_cache.sh; ls -la
/shared/projects/MityCAM-jenkins/intermediates/MityCAM-Yocto/latest/libdaq*.ipk
| tee -a /tmp/ls.log 2>&1; sleep 1;done
ls: cannot access
'/shared/projects/MityCAM-jenkins/intermediates/MityCAM-Yocto/latest/libdaq*.ipk':
No such file or directory
ls: cannot access
'/shared/projects/MityCAM-jenkins/intermediates/MityCAM-Yocto/latest/libdaq*.ipk':
No such file or directory
ls: cannot access
'/shared/projects/MityCAM-jenkins/intermediates/MityCAM-Yocto/latest/libdaq*.ipk':
No such file or directory
ls: cannot access
'/shared/projects/MityCAM-jenkins/intermediates/MityCAM-Yocto/latest/libdaq*.ipk':
No such file or directory
Note directly trying to list the file works every time, it seems the bug must
be related to the use of the wildcard.
$ while true; do sudo /usr/local/scripts/drop_cache.sh; ls -la
/shared/projects/MityCAM-jenkins/intermediates/MityCAM-Yocto/latest/libdaq_1.0.9323-r3_cortexa9hf-neon.ipk
| tee -a /tmp/ls.log 2>&1; sleep 1;done

The drop_cache was needed to force the error everytime, otherwise it
would fail only a few times then succeed a bunch in a row before
randomly failing again.
$ cat /usr/local/scripts/drop_cache.sh
#!/bin/bash
# Test script to drop filesystem cache
sync
# Clear pagecache, dentries, and inodes
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
Downgrading the kernel to 5.4.0-107-generic on one of the machines caused the
problem to go away.
