RReverser opened Issue #2642:

Compile this minimal repro sample to WASI:

fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
    let path = std::path::Path::new("dir.tmp");
    std::fs::create_dir(path)?;
    assert!(path.exists());
    Ok(())
}

and execute with wasmtime --dir . on Windows.

It successfully creates the directory, but the path.exists() assertion fails.

This error does not reproduce either on Linux (with the same binary) or with Wasmer, so it seems to be an OS-specific Wasmtime bug.

I was able to reproduce this by having --dir . point to a network share drive (which in turn is a virtualbox shared folder) on windows, it succeeds if the directory is on the c: drive. Does that match your setup @RReverser ?

No, it was a regular folder for me.

With that smaller example I have the same behavior as before - passes when running on c:, fails when running on z:. I'll see if I can get a colleague to reproduce it.

If I use 40c4c6ac9bde95c72666d0cafb2ede6c7045edf9, I get the same behavior as @RReverser when somefolder is a directory and not a file.

It looks like path_filestat_get with the directory results in EACCES:

 DEBUG wasi_common::wasi                              > Error: Acces
 TRACE wasi_common::wasi::wasi_snapshot_preview1      > error=Ok(Acces)

When it's a file, the path_filestat_get call succeeds and there's no panic from the assert.

With e4827ad779c8adf5d99d9b1a1aa62f07af78c892, the repro succeeds with both a directory and file provided the CWD is not a mapped drive.

When it is a mapped drive, it appears we're messing around with path prefixes with strip_extended_prefix to remove \\?\ which results in out_path being UNC\\<path>\\somefolder rather than \\?\UNC\<path>\\somefolder, which results in a ENOENT error for the path as there's no relative UNC directory.

Thus mapped drives don't work at all for files or directories.

I should note that the problem I noticed with the weird UNC path was before the cap-std change was merged, but I suspect something similar is going on such that \\?\ prefixed paths are breaking WASI.

Indeed, the same prefix-stripping code is in cap-primitives: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/cap-std/blob/main/cap-primitives/src/windows/fs/get_path.rs

Ah, so it's fixed on the main branch, just not in the latest release?

With the exception of UNC paths, I believe so.

Heh, in that case perfect timing for the issue on my side - just the day after it was fixed :sweat_smile:

Thanks for reporting this and for bearing with us while we whittled down two independent problems. I've made a new issue to track the UNC paths problems, and will close this issue.

@pchickey Do you happen to have a date of the next release? It's not super-urgent, just a bit annoying issue to deal with.
