I haven't been able to reproduce this in a test, but this should fix the following crash observed while running `bazel info`: ``` FATAL: bazel crashed due to an internal error. Printing stack trace: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "java.util.concurrent.ExecutorService.shutdownNow()" because "this.materializationExecutor" is null at com.google.devtools.build.lib.remote.RemoteExternalOverlayFileSystem.afterCommand(RemoteExternalOverlayFileSystem.java:145) at com.google.devtools.build.lib.remote.RemoteModule.afterCommand(RemoteModule.java:1034) at com.google.devtools.build.lib.runtime.BlazeRuntime.afterCommand(BlazeRuntime.java:787) at com.google.devtools.build.lib.runtime.BlazeCommandDispatcher.execExclusively(BlazeCommandDispatcher.java:807) at com.google.devtools.build.lib.runtime.BlazeCommandDispatcher.exec(BlazeCommandDispatcher.java:266) at com.google.devtools.build.lib.server.GrpcServerImpl.executeCommand(GrpcServerImpl.java:608) at com.google.devtools.build.lib.server.GrpcServerImpl.lambda$run$0(GrpcServerImpl.java:679) at io.grpc.Context$1.run(Context.java:566) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(Unknown Source) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(Unknown Source) at java.base/java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) ``` Closes bazelbuild#27690. PiperOrigin-RevId: 833722608 Change-Id: I88c485a01e5967657ec3b5529a47639b743b18e6 (cherry picked from commit a7d0e91)
Don't print a message when it's successful. Users can always look under `external` to verify which repo came from the cache. Closes bazelbuild#27699. PiperOrigin-RevId: 834096735 Change-Id: I3916fb240218a6b68ecf48417142b998ca281598 (cherry picked from commit 3ca9ce1)
Fixes the creation of empty directories and also contains a speculative fix for the following issue observed during a sequence of real builds: ``` Error in path: Failed to materialize remote repo @@protoc-gen-validate+: [unix_jni.cc:302] /home/ubuntu/.cache/bazel/_bazel_ubuntu/123/external/protoc-gen-validate+/example-workspace/.bazelrc (File exists) ERROR: //:foo :: Error loading option //:foo: error evaluating module extension @@gazelle+//:extensions.bzl%go_deps ``` The mentioned file is a symlink. Closes bazelbuild#27711. PiperOrigin-RevId: 836122472 Change-Id: I8becd8c3640a659d28dc433340db962c18563d9f (cherry picked from commit b27ea05)
Ensures that the returned `Path` is still in the overlay file system.
Also make the error message emitted by `Path#checkSameFileSystem` more informative. This is motivated by and helped discover the above as the fix for the following crash observed when using the remote repo contents cache with an explicit `--sandbox_base`:
```
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Files are on different filesystems: /dev/shm/bazel-sandbox.b10976335efa519b0184f3091ac8e21f7beefb92142303f9ab2c3341f45a2f28/linux-sandbox/18/execroot/_main/external/c-ares+/configs/ares_build.h (on com.google.devtools.build.lib.unix.UnixFileSystem@5e0a8154), /home/ubuntu/.cache/bazel/_bazel_ubuntu/123/execroot/_main/external/c-ares+/configs/ares_build.h (on com.google.devtools.build.lib.remote.RemoteExternalOverlayFileSystem@6cd9bfda)
