Dear all,
for some reason, I am now getting many (tens) directories of the form
org-persist-NNNNNN in /tmp. These seem to include an index file and a
cache type sub-directory structure. Why are these there and does
anything clean them up?
I have nothing related to org-persist in my configuration that I can
see.
Thank you,
eric

If you run something like make test or emacs -Q + org, it is expected.
These are throwaway directories used by org-persist for emacs -Q.
Do we need to care about cleaning up /tmp?

I am not explicitly running either of those (at the moment).
I wonder if this is somehow related to native compilation or some other
post-build processes as I have built Emacs twice from git today (and I
always update org when I build Emacs) and these directories have
appeared soon thereafter (I think).

Maybe not but I do use /tmp for some things and having tens of these
directories does clutter things up a bit. I'm happy to ignore but was
curious as to why they were there at all.
Thank you,

Could be. If so, it may indicate some issue with logic. The index should
not be written if the only entry inside index file is index version
itself.
You should _not_ see something like
((:container
((index "2.7"))
:persist-file "d0/5078fe-5e31-4ddb-95a0-93ceae58df0c" :associated nil :expiry never :last-access 1671637032.483552 :last-access-hr "2022-12-21T18:37:12+0300"))
as the only contents of "index" file.

I just checked my /tmp/ and I have 32 org-persist directories, and I must sadly
report they all have index files like I shouldn't see:
((:container
((index "2.7"))
:persist-file "2f/859289-dcc1-4d55-8c91-e22b4ccc92dd" :associated nil :expiry never :last-access 1671429856.980864 :last-access-hr "2022-12-19T01:04:16-0500"))
Nineteen of them were made on Monday ago, and I may have rebuilt Emacs and Org
then, and maybe restarted Emacs, but not nineteen times.

my two cents is that maybe one should not care so much about cleaning up
/tmp, but i think it's worthwhile trying not to clutter it up too much.

Probably not - at least not on most modern Linux systems as these tend
to have a systemd task which will clean up the temp directories on
reboot. You can usually tweak the settings for systemd-tempfiles if you
want to modify when and how often temporary files are cleaned up.

One possible approach to this is to have all org-persist related
temporary directories into an overall "$TMPDIR/org-persist" directory.
That is, assuming that the parent directory exists, we create
org-persist temporary directories as "$TMPDIR/org-persist/XXXXXX" and
everything else would remain the same.
The downside for this approach is that, since `make-tempfile' only makes
a mkdir() call in its underlying function try_dir() assuming the
existence of its parents [1, 2], we would probably have to create the
parent via `(mkdir DIR t)' before every `make-tempfile' call within
org-persist.

Predictable name in a "world" writable directory generally is not a good
idea. Multiple users may try to run Org on the same machine. There are
some kernel parameters to prevent certain type of attacks, however I am
unsure concerning their default values in various Linux distributions
and what will happen if one user creates a symlink to somewhere the
under home directory of another one. So unfortunately a directory
reusable by different emacs sessions should be avoided.
Ihor, I do not like that after your latest changes temporary directory
became world readable.
Another point is that creating temporary files and directories must be
an atomic operation. In between of removing and recreating it an
attacker might manage to create a file with the same name.

Could some of the issues people are concerned about regarding use of
/tmp be avoided if instead the temporary files were put into ~/.cache?
To me, that would seem to be the appropriate location for such files. It
would mean that org would need to 'manage' or clean out old files, but
that shouldn't be a big issue.

There is no ~/.cache on Windows, the fallback is ~/.emacs.d. org-persist
files in ~/.emacs.d was the original source of complains. Moreover, I do
not think emacs -q should write to the same places as emacs initialized
in the regular way.
I see a couple of options:
- Remove the directory on exit (taking some care to not prevent quit in
the cases of errors)
- Create the directory lazily. The variable should not be accessed
directly, when some code is going to write a file it should call a
function that creates the directory if it is first call.
Another idea is to avoid caching of parse result for small files.

I haven't been following along very closely, but seeing the
involved complexities, I'd appreciate a knob to disable caching
altogether.
My usage of Org hasn't triggered any slowdowns which would be
worth all that complexity (and yes, my biggest Org file so-far
is 36k lines, and my box isn't the fastest around).
But, of course, it's your call :-)

Ihor wrote that org-persist usage is not limited to org-element cache.
Another case is referenced remote files. Perhaps e.g. LaTeX preview
still uses old approach for generated image, but it is rather close case.
I do not mind to have a setting that disables org-persist, but it
requires some amount of work. Its priority unlikely will be high.
If you demonstrate that e.g., when working with encrypted files, their
sensitive content leaks to the cache then it will raise the severity of
the issue. Of course, the always appreciated option is to provide a
patch that consistently makes org-persist optional.

I improved things a tiny bit more.
Now, whatever is created by emacs -Q will be removed as long as
`kill-emacs-hook' is executed. It is the most aggressive cleaning I can
imagine.

This is the only sane way for emacs -Q, AFAIK. And the cache will now
only exist while Emacs is running (for -Q cmd arg). Removed
unconditionally upon exiting.

The main reason we cannot disable org-persist is _not_ Org AST cache.
The reason is mostly caching some downloaded files.
