Can someone please confirm I'm on the right track here? We have a multithreaded server application which calls recv() and poll() from async cancellable threads, each thread handles a single connection with a master thread accpeting new connections and adding them to a job queue. More and more often now we are seeing the server lock up and on inspection two or more threads seem deadlocked in some race condition inside libc recv() and or poll(). One example here shows two back traces from gdb from the two threads that seemed deadlocked chewing 100% CPU: Thread 1 bt: #0 __pthread_disable_asynccancel () at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/cancellation.S:98 #1 0x00007f895ba987fd in __libc_recv (fd=0, fd@entry=33, buf=buf@entry=0x7cada02b, n=n@entry=1024, flags=1537837035, flags@entry=16384) at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/recv.c:35 #2 0x000000000040ec54 in recv (__flags=16384, __n=1024, __buf=0x7cada02b, __fd=33) at /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/socket2.h:44 [snip] Thread 2 bt: #0 0x00007f895ba987eb in __libc_recv (fd=fd@entry=31, buf=buf@entry=0x7ca5e02b, n=n@entry=1024, flags=-1, flags@entry=16384) at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/recv.c:33 #1 0x000000000040ec54 in recv (__flags=16384, __n=1024, __buf=0x7ca5e02b, __fd=31) at /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/socket2.h:44 [snip] There can be more than two threads involved, but I'm unsure if it can happen with just one thread locked up, but it's always inside recv() or poll() and sometimes in __pthread_disable_asynccancel() within either of those. Could I work around this problem by changing the threads to syncronmous cancellable or try to work around the need to cancel the treads at all? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
