Overview
Mirror from op-rs/kona#573:
The use of command-fds with tokio::process::Command causes rare, deterministic race conditions that lead to witness generation failures. These issues consistently occur for specific block ranges on OP Sepolia, Base, and OP Mainnet in op-succinct.
We should switch to std::process::Command to avoid these race conditions. This will increase resource usage for concurrent witness generation, and we can move back to
tokio
once the race condition issues are resolved.I'm not exactly certain the source of the issue, but the Safety section of
tokio::process::Command
mentions some issues arising from file descriptors: https://tikv.github.io/doc/tokio/process/struct.Command.html#safetyMisc
