cyclonedds （ros2 foxy）ddsrt_mutex_lock abort（crash）

[dogchenya]

The program crashed twice，while using ros2（foxy） I cant share the code because it is from a private database

platform：aarch64

Strange, I've never seen that one before ... 🤔

I don't think it is relevant that it is Foxy, or ROS 2 for that matter, because this very much looks like pthread_mutex_lock returned an error on trying to lock an internal mutex on an internal thread (recv_thread). That smells like a race condition, memory corruption, use-after-free or similar. Given that it is an aarch64 that means I am concerned that it might be a missing memory barrier somewhere, because x86/x64 tend to be more forgiving of such mistakes ...

Any idea what the program was doing at the time? Deleting readers, perhaps?

Thank you for your reply。 We reproduced this bug and it will appear after stress testing. Crashed after running for 10 minutes，both arm and x86。 Must appear

Code

 public:

    client_node_ = rclcpp::Node::make_shared("test_node" + std::to_string(index_));
    thread_ = std::thread([this]() {
      for (size_t i = 0; i < 0xFFFFFFFFFFFF; i++) {
        auto qos = rclcpp::QoS(rclcpp::KeepLast(1000)).reliable().lifespan(std::chrono::seconds(60));
        auto client = client_node_->create_client<CommonService>("/test", qos.get_rmw_qos_profile());
        auto ros_req = std::make_shared<CommonService::Request>();
        auto& req = *ros_req;
        req.type = "";
        req.data = "{}";
        if (client->wait_for_service(std::chrono::seconds(10))) {
          auto result_future = client->async_send_request(ros_req);
          auto spin_result = rclcpp::spin_until_future_complete(client_node_, result_future, std::chrono::seconds(10));
          if (spin_result != rclcpp::FutureReturnCode::SUCCESS) {
