libunwind causes deadlock with heap-checker #222

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
In order to generate, you need my software, but i can't provide it.
I just did "pprof --gv p2.hprof.0001.heap"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
open the pprof.ps : arrows are all with zeros

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
google-perftools 1.5, libunwind 0.99 hardware : 64bits , ubuntu 9.10 up to 
date.

Hmm, the profile seems pretty good actually, except for the fact all the edges 
are 0.  
But indeed, that's what the profile is showing -- lots of backtraces with 
almost 0 
memory used.  Is it possible your application just doesn't use that much memory?

Did the program only output foo.0001.heap -- that is, there's no 00002.heap or 
anything else?  That's another indication that the heap-profiler, at least, 
thinks 
the application isn't using much memory.

If you are using a lot of memory, maybe you're using it in a way that tcmalloc 
doesn't hook into.  Do you acquire memory via malloc or free?  Or do you use 
mmap or 
something else?

Also, if you can provide the output of pprof --raw p2.hprof.00001.heap, that 
may help 
figure out what's going on (I can run pprof on the resulting raw profile, 
without 
needing your binary).

Hello,
you're right, there is no 00002.heap, although my software was working right, 
doing 
lots of malloc and free. (pprof --raw is attached to this message).

In fact, i had a lot of difficulties to run heap-profile. It deadlocks 9 times 
out of 
10 at startup, and it looks like issue 208 :
http://code.google.com/p/google-perftools/issues/detail?id=208 . (My 
p2.hprof.0001.heap is from the luckily 1 out of 10). Indeed my soft uses Mysql. 
I 
tried to play with the linker : e.g -lpthread -lmysqlclient_r -ltcmalloc , and 
changing the order unsuccessfully :/

Here is the backtrace of the threads (2 threads at that time) of my software 
when it 
is deadlocked :

I can see some "malloc_hook" :) ... in the bt.

Anyway thank you for you work

Hello again,

here is a 10 line source code, that create a deadlock on my computer.

gcc -I/usr/include/mysql/  -lpthread -lmysqlclient_r -ltcmalloc

no need to setup a database, it deadlocks before. The backtrace :

Ah, this is a classic libunwind issue, as described in the README (under 
"64-bit 
issues").  The only solution right now is to compile libunwind with 
--enable-frame-
pointers.  This should get you a heap profile, though you may not have 
visibility 
into libraries that lack debug info, such as libcstdc++ and libmysql.  That may 
be 
sufficient for your needs.  (Note the tcmalloc allocator ought not to be 
affected by 
this bug, just the heap- and cpu-profilers.)

I don't see a bug report describing this libunwind issue, so I'll leave this 
open and 
change the summary line.  But I don't expect a fix anytime soon: it depends on 
the 
libc folks and the libunwind folks working out some locking issues.  There's 
unfortunately not much we ourselves can do.

Building libunwind AND tcmalloc with frame-pointers made it work !

Thank you for your work.

Ah, there *is* a bug report for libunwind.  I'll merge this with that.
