fix(fs): preserve async write-unlink ordering - #9654
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe filesystem runtime now tracks parked writes by path. Matching promise and callback ChangesDeferred unlink ordering
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The runtime change is intended to prevent a queued write from recreating a file after unlink, but its regression coverage can vary with filesystem scheduling. A deterministic ordering test is needed before merge to reliably protect the fix. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Node.js fs promises stat asynchronous operations are not synchronized concurrent file system operations documentation
💡 Result:
In Node.js, the fs/promises API provides asynchronous file system methods, including stat, which execute operations off the event loop thread using the internal Node.js thread pool [1][2]. According to official Node.js documentation, these asynchronous file system operations—including those in the fs/promises and callback-based APIs—are not synchronized and are not thread-safe [1][2]. When multiple concurrent operations are performed, particularly modifications to the same file, the lack of synchronization means the order of execution is not guaranteed, which can lead to data corruption or race conditions [1][3]. While fs.promises.stat is generally used for reading file information rather than modifying files, it is subject to the same underlying architectural behavior as other fs methods regarding concurrency [1][4]. Developers must manage synchronization manually if they require ordered execution or atomic operations across concurrent calls [1][2].

Make the ordering test deterministic. statAsync is node:fs/promises.stat, not a barrier for the preceding writes. Node does not guarantee ordering between concurrent asynchronous filesystem operations. Because run_parity_tests.sh compares Node and Perry output, this fixture may miss the regression or report a mismatch based on thread-pool timing. Use a deterministic Perry-specific ordering test at lines 33, 58, and 78.
