watchFile never fires when vfs uses a real dir

Version

main

Platform

macOS 26.2

Subsystem

vfs

What steps will reproduce the bug?

test.js:

const vfs = require('node:vfs');
const fs = require('fs');

const v = vfs.create(new vfs.RealFSProvider('/tmp'));

let called = false;
v.watchFile('/a.txt', { interval: 50 }, () => {
  called = true;
});

fs.writeFileSync('/tmp/a.txt', 'x');

setTimeout(() => {
  console.log('called?', called);
}, 300);

$ node --experimental-vfs test.js

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

Always

What is the expected behavior? Why is that the expected behavior?

called? true

file changed, the listener should run

What do you see instead?

called? false

Additional information

No response

Inizia da test.js e dagli entry point node:vfs per RealFSProvider e watchFile, quindi riproduci il problema con node --experimental-vfs test.js. Traccia il motivo per cui il listener non viene invocato dopo la modifica di /tmp/a.txt; il lavoro è completato quando l’esempio restituisce called? true.
