Bug Description

---Problem Description---
Multi-threaded luaJIT application hangs due to apparent deadlock in GLIBC.

---uname output---
Linux p10a102 4.4.0-36-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 11 18:00:57 UTC 2016 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux

---Steps to Reproduce---
 Build luaJIT + Torch and run the following lua program:

local Threads = require 'threads'
nthreads = 8
thrds = Threads(nthreads,
         function() print('Starting thread ') end,
         function() require 'image' end
      );

thrds:synchronize()
print "Done"

Userspace tool common name: GLIBC

The userspace tool has the following bit modes: 64-bit

Userspace package: GLIBC 2.23

Userspace tool obtained from project website: https://github.com/PPC64/torch-distro.git ecb487a3e807c3bfc901cab0b9e8767a853e085d

Here's a sample run of the lua application and stack backtraces for all the threads. You can all the worker threads are in GLIBC's __lll_lock_wait_private() waiting on various locks. They're traversing various paths to their lock waits--some threads in IO paths, some in allocation paths, and some in dlsym().

Problem is easily recreatable, and is more likely to strike as the number of threads grows.

I can provide core file, or package with the luajit/torch binaries, etc. as needed.

thrds = Threads(nthreads,
         function() print('Starting thread ') end,
         function() require 'image' end
      );

thrds:synchronize()
print "Done"

    malloc: Add missing internal_function attributes on function definitions

    Fixes build on i386 after commit 29d794863cd6e03115d3670707cc873a9965ba92.

    malloc: Remove malloc hooks from fork handler

    The fork handler now runs so late that there is no risk anymore that
    other fork handlers in the same thread use malloc, so it is no
    longer necessary to install malloc hooks which made a subset
    of malloc functionality available to the thread that called fork.

    (cherry picked from commit 8a727af925be63aa6ea0f5f90e16751fd541626b)

commit 2a71cf409681b89ffb8892b35cac64de79b7adb8

    malloc: Run fork handler as late as possible [BZ #19431]

    Previously, a thread M invoking fork would acquire locks in this order:

      (M1) malloc arena locks (in the registered fork handler)
      (M2) libio list lock

    A thread F invoking flush (NULL) would acquire locks in this order:

      (F1) libio list lock
      (F2) individual _IO_FILE locks

    A thread G running getdelim would use this order:

      (G1) _IO_FILE lock
      (G2) malloc arena lock

    After executing (M1), (F1), (G1), none of the threads can make progress.

    This commit changes the fork lock order to:

      (M'1) libio list lock
      (M'2) malloc arena locks

    It explicitly encodes the lock order in the implementations of fork,
    and does not rely on the registration order, thus avoiding the deadlock.

Yes, but this bug has been reported against Ubuntu 16.04, which doesn't have the fix yet.
The fix for glibc 2.23 is also available upstream in the branch release/2.23/master.
The list of the required patches are available in the end of the bug description.

when will this patch be available for 16.04 customers? Any chance it will be by 10/15?

Hello bugproxy, or anyone else affected,

Accepted glibc into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/2.23-0ubuntu4 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

Howdy! I'm the original reporter (via the bridged BZ system).

I installed the new GLIBC packages:

ii libc6:ppc64el 2.23-0ubuntu4 ppc64el GNU C Library: Shared libraries
ii libc6-dev:ppc64el 2.23-0ubuntu4 ppc64el GNU C Library: Development Libraries and Header Files

And confirmed that I no longer see the hang of the test app.

I've rolled the changes out to half a dozen other machines to get some runtime on the new libc more generally. So far it looks good.

Marking verified.

Just wanted to report that we've been running the new GLIBC on 7 systems for almost a week now. It fixes the reported problem, and we have NOT seen any other issues or regressions.
