Both ssh_sftp:read_file_info/2,3 and ssh_sftp:read_link_info/2,3 return incorrect record file_info

[shapovalovts]

Describe the bug
ssh_sftp:read_file_info/2,3 and ssh_sftp:read_link_info/2,3 return record file_info with uid and gid string values, while they must be integers.

To Reproduce
Read any file via one of those functions.

Expected behavior
ssh_sftp:read_file_info/2,3 and ssh_sftp:read_link_info/2,3 return the record in the same format as functions with the same names from file module.

Affected versions
Reproduced on 24.2 and 26.1.2, but in the past was reproduced on older OTP versions as well.

Additional context
The incorrect record can't be used as is, because functions like ssh_stfp:write_file_info raise exceptions because incorrect type of uid and gid in the record.

Thanks for report we scheduled work on that. It has to wait for a while due to priorities :-/.

update:

• a bug seen when Erlang server and Erlang client is used
• caused by missing list_to_integer conversion in client decoding process

fix is merged to maint and master branches. planned to be released in upcoming patches for OTP-26, OTP-25 and OTP-24.
