Description Joshua Watt 2019-09-04 02:38:00 UTC 
Using the sstate-plaindir flag to specify that a single directory should be saved to sstate can race with other tasks if they are attempting to read a file from that directory. This occurs because the sstate code renames the directory to a temporary location to create the sstate object, then renames it back when it is finished, meaning there is a period of time where the directory doesn't exist.
