Michele Orrù added the comment:
Note: on python3, the error is
File "/[...]/cpython/Lib/genericpath.py", line 41, in isdir
st = os.stat(s)
TypeError: embedded NUL character
(same exception but different message.)
I don't know where to start fixing, because the documentation for os.stat says
"Perform the equivalent of a stat() system call on the given path.", which is
not exactly the correct behavior in this case.
I see that
$ printf "/\00" | xargs stat
stat()s correctly the root directory, and
$ printf "/\00tmp" | xargs stat
stat()s still '/'. So, is this a bug of os.stat?
Noising some coredevs.
