<p>I suggest to start from scratch and write the smallest possible worker, whose only job is to delete a list of files, and report progress/completion via signal/slots or invokeMethod.</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>INLINE COMMENTS</strong><div><div style="margin: 6px 0 12px 0;"><div style="border: 1px solid #C7CCD9; border-radius: 3px;"><div style="padding: 0; background: #F7F7F7; border-color: #e3e4e8; border-style: solid; border-width: 0 0 1px 0; margin: 0;"><div style="color: #74777d; background: #eff2f4; padding: 6px 8px; overflow: hidden;"><a style="float: right; text-decoration: none;" href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D24752#inline-140004">View Inline</a><span style="color: #4b4d51; font-weight: bold;">deletejob.cpp:161</span></div>

<div style="margin: 8px 0; padding: 0 12px;"><p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">This calls slotReport in the main thread, where it will read many values from the worker. Those values are written by the worker, from a secondary thread. This is the very definition of a race condition.</p>

<p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">I thought the plan (in the task's pseudo-code) was to move into a worker, as little data as possible. And to never access that data from two concurrent threads.</p>

<p style="padding: 0; margin: 8px;">In this patch, almost all of the members are moved to the worker, which creates race conditions all around.</p>
