Guy Rozendorn added the comment: Here's a test case that re-creates this issue. I chose to use mocks instead of sample files from sysfs so it would be simpler to run, it can be easily changed to use a file from sysfs.
The following code runs on Python2.7, requires the mock library {code} from unittest import TestCase from tempfile import mkstemp from mock import patch, Mock from os import close, remove, write, stat from posix import stat_result from tarfile import TarFile def fake_st_size_side_effect(*args, **kwargs): src, = args stats = stat(src) return stat_result((stats.st_mode, stats.st_ino, stats.st_dev, stats.st_nlink, stats.st_uid, stats.st_gid, stats.st_size + 10, stats.st_atime, stats.st_mtime, stats.st_ctime)) class Issue10760TestCase(TestCase): def setUp(self): fd, self.src = mkstemp() write(fd, '\x00' * 4) close(fd) fd, self.dst = mkstemp() close(fd) def test(self): with patch("os.lstat") as lstat: lstat.side_effect = fake_st_size_side_effect tar_file = TarFile.open(self.dst, 'w:gz') tar_file.add(self.src) {code} ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10760> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
