and setupTest(): verify /dev/shm is writable before enabling the test, and after

I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. Since the description explicitly asks maintainers to pick between this minimal fix and the broader redesign in #38080, a human should make that call before merging.
What was reviewed:
- Traced every consumer of
TemporaryDirectory.name— all three uses are inensure_temp_node_gyp_script_run(PATH entry,BUN_WHICH_IGNORE_CWD/npm_config_node_gyppath); no other call site relies onnamebeing$TMPDIR. - Confirmed the Windows-only
TemporaryDirectory.pathfield is unaffected — it's derived fromget_fd_path_z(tempdir)on the actual handle, so it already reflected the fallback. - The
dirname_store().append(...)interning matches the existing pattern used forglobal_link_dir_pathin the same file.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
The PR fixes a mismatch in get_temporary_directory_run (src/install/PackageManager/PackageManagerDirectories.rs): when the $TMPDIR → cache renameat() probe fails (EXDEV or unwritable), the function switches handle to <cache>/.tmp but previously left name pointing at $TMPDIR. ensure_temp_node_gyp_script_run writes the shim through handle but builds the lifecycle-script PATH entry from name, so lifecycle scripts calling node-gyp would exit 127. The fix derives name from cache_directory_path + "/.tmp" when the fallback engages, interning it in the process-lifetime dirname store. A Linux-only test forces the EXDEV path via /dev/shm.
Security risks
None identified. The change only affects which directory string is placed on the lifecycle-script PATH; both candidates are directories bun already fully controls (the tempdir it just created). No new untrusted input is parsed.
Level of scrutiny
Moderate-to-high. This is production package-manager code that runs during every bun install with lifecycle scripts, and the PR description explicitly presents this as one of two competing approaches (vs #38080's stable $cache/bin/node-gyp redesign). That is a design decision a maintainer should make, not an automated approval.
Other factors
- I grep'd all consumers of
get_temporary_directory; every site exceptensure_temp_node_gyp_script_runuses only.handle(the fd), so this change cannot regress them. The Windows.pathfield is already derived from the fd, so it was never wrong. - There are two outstanding bot comments not yet addressed: the comment-cop flag on the 5-line explanatory comment, and the CodeRabbit suggestion to assert
statSync(shmTmp).dev !== statSync(packageDir).devinside the test (the current guard compares againstos.tmpdir(), which is wherepackageDiroriginates viaverdaccio.createTestDir, so it's a reasonable proxy — but the direct assertion would be tighter). - Given the open design question (#38080 vs this PR) and the unaddressed review feedback, deferring rather than approving.
…back When renameat() from $TMPDIR into the install cache fails (EXDEV or an unwritable $TMPDIR), getTemporaryDirectory repoints the directory handle at <cache>/.tmp but kept reporting $TMPDIR as its name. The node-gyp lifecycle shim is written through the handle but advertised on PATH via the name, so the PATH entry pointed at a directory that does not exist and lifecycle scripts spawning node-gyp exited 127. Derive the advertised name from the cache path when the fallback engages so PATH and BUN_WHICH_IGNORE_CWD match where the shim actually lives.

CI on the current head (cc0159e) is red only on lanes this diff does not touch: a pre-existing require-cache leak-test timeout on the asan lane (also fails on main) and several install/fetch tests that passed on retry. The lifecycle-scripts file this PR changes is green. Not retriggering, since the pre-existing failure would fail again. |

LGTM — the follow-up commit tightened the comment and added the cross-device assertion, so the test now proves it exercises the fallback path.
What was reviewed:
namerecomputation only fires whentried_dot_tmpis set; the non-fallback path is byte-identical to before, andcache_directory_pathis guaranteed populated by theget_cache_directorycall at the top of the function.- Windows

Extended reasoning...
Overview
The PR fixes a bug in get_temporary_directory_run (src/install/PackageManager/PackageManagerDirectories.rs) where, after falling back from $TMPDIR to <cache>/.tmp on EXDEV or an unwritable tempdir, the returned TemporaryDirectory.name still pointed at the original $TMPDIR. Since name is what ensure_temp_node_gyp_script_run uses to build the lifecycle-script PATH entry and BUN_WHICH_IGNORE_CWD, the shim was written to one directory but advertised at another, producing node-gyp: command not found. The fix is 12 lines: when tried_dot_tmp is true, join cache_directory_path with .tmp via resolve_path::join::<Auto> and intern the bytes in the process-lifetime dirname_store (mirroring the global_link_dir pattern), wrapped in bun_core::handle_oom. A Linux-only regression test forces EXDEV by pointing TMPDIR at /dev/shm while the cache stays on the harness tempdir's filesystem.
Security risks
None identified. The change only affects which directory string is stored in TemporaryDirectory.name after a fallback that Bun itself initiated; both candidate directories are already trusted (Bun creates and writes into both). No user-controlled input reaches the new join. The test stubs npm_config_node_gyp with a local script and restricts PATH, so no network or real node-gyp is invoked.
Level of scrutiny
Low-to-moderate. The Rust change is tightly scoped: the non-fallback branch returns the exact same temp_dir_name as before, so only installs that were already broken (EXDEV fallback) see any behavior change. get_cache_directory(manager) runs at function entry and populates cache_directory_path before it is read here. The Windows-only path field is separately derived from get_fd_path_z on the actual tempdir handle, so it was already correct and needed no parallel fix. Allocation goes through handle_oom; the &'static lifetime comes from the dirname store, matching existing call sites.
Other factors
The test follows the harness conventions the repo review rules call out: test.concurrent, skipIf with a computed guard that also verifies /dev/shm is writable, Promise.all draining stdout/stderr/exited, output asserted before exit code, cleanup in try/finally registered before the spawn's assertions, and an in-test assertion (statSync(shmTmp).dev !== statSync(packageDir).dev) proving the precondition so the test cannot vacuously pass. The mkdtempSync("/dev/shm/…") deviation from tempDir is deliberate and necessary — the test must control the mount point. No CODEOWNERS entry covers these paths. The earlier COMMENTED review's feedback was addressed in cc0159e (shortened comment, writability probe, device-mismatch assertion); the remaining self-resolved inline threads are bot-authored and there is no outstanding human CHANGES_REQUESTED.
