---------------------------------------- Bug #10909: Shell out when reading from /proc https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/10909#change-88554 * Author: Josh Cooper * Status: Rejected * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: * Target version: * Keywords: customer * Branch: * Affected Facter version: ---------------------------------------- There are many places in facter where it using ruby's IO.read or IO.readlines to read the contents of files in /proc. This is problematic, as it can cause ruby to block definitely. It is better to use: <pre> Facter::Util::Resolution.exec("/bin/cat #{uptime_file} 2>/dev/null") </pre> with an appropriate timeout.
