GDB hangs inside td_ta_thr_iter. The fix is to not use that libthread_db function anymore. Long version: Running the testsuite against my all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series is still exposing latent non-stop bugs. I was originally seeing this with the multi-create.exp test, back when we were still using libthread_db thread event breakpoints. The all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series forces a thread list refresh each time GDB needs to start stepping over a breakpoint (to pause all threads). That test hits the thread event breakpoint often, resulting in a bunch of step-over operations, thus a bunch of thread list refreshes while some threads in the target are running. The commit adds a real non-stop mode test that triggers the issue, based on multi-create.exp, that does an explicit "info threads" when a breakpoint is hit. IOW, it does the same things the as-ns series was doing when testing multi-create.exp. The bug is a race, so it unfortunately takes several runs for the test to trigger it. In fact, even when setting the test running in a loop, it sometimes takes several minutes for it to trigger for me. The race is related to libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter. This is libthread_db's entry point for walking the thread list of the inferior. Sometimes, when GDB refreshes the thread list from the target, libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter can somehow see glibc's thread list as a cycle, and get stuck in an infinite loop. The issue is that when a thread exits, its thread control structure in glibc is moved from a "used" list to a "cache" list. These lists are simply circular linked lists where the "next/prev" pointers are embedded in the thread control structure itself. The "next" pointer of the last element of the list points back to the list's sentinel "head". There's only one set of "next/prev" pointers for both lists; thus a thread can only be in one of the lists at a time, not in both simultaneously. So when thread C exits, simplifying, the following happens. A-C are threads. stack_used and stack_cache are the list's heads. Before: stack_used -> A -> B -> C -> (&stack_used) stack_cache -> (&stack_cache) After: stack_used -> A -> B -> (&stack_used) stack_cache -> C -> (&stack_cache) td_ta_thr_iter starts by iterating at the list's head's next, and iterates until it sees a thread whose next pointer points to the list's head again. Thus in the before case above, C's next points to stack_used, indicating end of list. In the same case, the stack_cache list is empty. For each thread being iterated, td_ta_thr_iter reads the whole thread object out of the inferior. This includes the thread's "next" pointer. In the scenario above, it may happen that td_ta_thr_iter is iterating thread B and has already read B's thread structure just before thread C exits and its control structure moves to the cached list. Now, recall that td_ta_thr_iter is running in the context of GDB, and there's no locking between GDB and the inferior. From it's local copy of B, td_ta_thr_iter believes that the next thread after B is thread C, so it happilly continues iterating to C, a thread that has already exited, and is now in the stack cache list. After iterating C, td_ta_thr_iter finds the stack_cache head, which because it is not stack_used, td_ta_thr_iter assumes it's just another thread. After this, unless the reverse race triggers, GDB gets stuck in td_ta_thr_iter forever walking the stack_cache list, as no thread in thatlist has a next pointer that points back to stack_used (the terminating condition). Before fully understanding the issue, I tried adding cycle detection to GDB's td_ta_thr_iter callback. However, td_ta_thr_iter skips calling the callback in some cases, which means that it's possible that the callback isn't called at all, making it impossible for GDB to break the loop. I did manage to get GDB stuck in that state more than once. Fortunately, we can avoid the issue altogether. We don't really need td_ta_thr_iter for live debugging nowadays, given PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE. We already know how to map and lwp id to a thread id without iterating (thread_from_lwp), so use that more. gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-02-08 Pedro Alves * linux-nat.c (linux_handle_extended_wait): Call thread_db_notice_clone whenever a new clone LWP is detected.
