Richard Achmatowicz commented on JGRP-967:
------------------------------------------
I ran our old friend JCarder (which detects potential deadlocks when using synchronized
blocks) against the test run (with upqueue and downqueue turned off) and it came up with
two potential deadlocks:
(i) a potential deadlock between two theads (IncomingPacket handler and main) described in
example0.png
(ii) a potential deadlock with a single thread (main) described in example1.png
The red color indicates that multiple threads are involved in the deadlock(cycle); yellow
that only a single thread is involved in the deadlock(cycle).
I then ran the test case again with the FD_SOCK layer removed, and JCarder reported no
potential deadlocks. So it looks as though this may not be a red herring.
I hope this helps...
Deadlock in FD_SOCK
--------------------
Key: JGRP-967
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JGRP-967
Project: JGroups
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.4.5
Environment: Deadlock detected on Fedora 8, JDK 1.4/JDK 1.5.
Reporter: Richard Achmatowicz
Assignee: Bela Ban
Priority: Minor
Due to a problem with IPv6 addresses and ServerSocket connections hanging, a deadlock was
revealed in FD_SOCK.
The deadlock reveals itself, for example, in the test RpcDispatcherAnycastTest at the end
of the test, when the channels are being torn down. What follows are my original emails to
Bela:
Richard:
I've tracked down the test case failure of RpcDispatcherAnycastTest under IPv6 to a
problem with shutting down the protocol stack. The test executes fine, but in the teardown
phase, when the test tries to close the three JChannels which have been set up, the first
channel closes correctly, but the second channel hangs.
JChannel tries to disconnect from the group before shutting down by:
(i) sending a DISCONNECT event and waits for a DISCONNECT_OK event via a promise
(ii) sending a STOP_QUEUING event and waita for a return from the call (i.e. has reached
the bottom of the stack)
It then calls ProtocolStack.stopStack() which sends a STOP event down the stack and waits
for a STOP_OK event via a promise.
The STOP event is not making its way correctly down the stack.
Here is a trace with IPv4 (i've added in some tracing of the STOP event of my own):
[junit] JChannel.disconnect(): waiting for DISCONNECT_OK
[junit] JChannel.disconnect(): got DISCONNECT_OK
[junit] JChannel.disconnect(): stopping queue
[junit] FD_SOCK.down called, event = STOP_QUEUEING
[junit] JChannel.disconnect(): stopped queue
[junit] JChannel.disconnect(): stopping stack

[junit] FD_SOCK.down called, event = STOP_QUEUEING

[junit] UNICAST: STOP event received
[junit] VERIFY_SUSPECT: STOP event received

[junit] FD_SOCK.down called, event = MSG
[junit] FD_SOCK.down called, event = MSG
[junit] FD_SOCK.down called, event = MSG
[junit] FD_SOCK.down called, event = MSG
If I remove FD_SOCK from the stack, the tests pass. If I include it, this stuff happens.
I also found that if I turn on the uphandler and downhandler threads in FD_SOCK, the
problem disappears:
...
<MERGE2 max_interval="30000" down_thread="false"
up_thread="false" min_interval="10000"/>
<FD_SOCK down_thread="true" up_thread="true"/> <FD
timeout="10000" max_tries="5" down_thread="false"
up_thread="false" shun="true"/>
...
Bela:
Then it must be a locking issue, I'll take a look tomorrow. Or if you find the
solution sooner, all the better ! :-)
