Profiling showed that a substantial amount of time was spent in the trace decorator invoked on every recursive `rmtree` call. The repeated logic has been moved into an internal helper without the decorator, cutting the call stack depth roughly in half and eliminating redundant `os.path.islink` checks and `if path in exclude` lookups. `os.listdir` was also replaced with `os.scandir`, improving memory efficiency and reducing `os.stat` calls. --- mock/py/mockbuild/file_util.py | 68 ++++++++++++------- mock/tests/test_file_util.py | 2 + ...mprove-file_util_rmtree-performance.bugfix | 1 + 3 files changed, 47 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-) create mode 100644 releng/release-notes-next/improve-file_util_rmtree-performance.bugfix diff --git a/mock/py/mockbuild/file_util.py b/mock/py/mockbuild/file_util.py index 83e117b76..d8b1b8059 100644 --- a/mock/py/mockbuild/file_util.py +++ b/mock/py/mockbuild/file_util.py @@ -4,7 +4,6 @@ import os import os.path import shutil -import stat import subprocess import time @@ -37,34 +36,55 @@ def rmtree(path, selinux=False, exclude=()): tries harder if it finds immutable files and supports excluding paths""" if os.path.islink(path): raise OSError("Cannot call rmtree on a symbolic link: %s" % path) + if path in exclude: + return + _recursive_rmtree(path, selinux, exclude) + + +def _recursive_rmtree(path, selinux, exclude): + """Recursively remove a directory tree, with support for retries and SELinux-related issues. + + This function attempts to remove a directory and all its contents, handling common + filesystem errors gracefully.
