`Process.open_files()` raises IndexError in some linux environments

[orionlee]

Process.open_files() raises IndexError in some linux environment at the following line.

psutil/psutil/_pslinux.py

Line 2256 in ea5b556

flags = int(f.readline().split()[1], 8)

Specifically, I got the error with Docker python:3.11-slim image running in Google Cloud Run.

The stacktrace:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/app/trial/main.py", line 62, in get_psutil_result
    res = p.open_files()
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It appears that in this specific environment, the fdinfo file content is different from what psutil assumes.

I did some tracing. The fdinfo file in Docker + Google Cloud Run only has 1 single line (missing the expected line for pos):

flags:	02100000

In contrast, the fdinfo file in my local environment looks like this, compatible with what psutil assumes:

pos:	0
flags:	02100000
mnt_id:	129
ino:	29836347532685335
