[Qemu-devel] [Bug 955379] [NEW] cmake hangs with qemu-arm-static

[Tom Mullins]

Public bug reported:

I'm using git commit 3e7ecd976b06f... configured with --target-list=arm-
linux-user --static in a chroot environment to compile some things. I
ran into this problem with both pcl and opencv-2.3.1. cmake consistently
freezes at some point during its execution, though in a different spot
each time, usually during a step when it's searching for some libraries.
For instance, pcl most commonly stops after:

[snip]
-- Boost version: 1.46.1
-- Found the following Boost libraries:
--   system
--   filesystem
--   thread
--   date_time
-- checking for module 'eigen3'
--   found eigen3, version 3.0.1

which is perplexing because it freezes after finding what it wants, not
during the search. When it does get past that point, it does so almost
immediately but freezes somewhere else.

I'm using 64-bit Ubuntu 11.10 with kernel release 3.0.0-16-generic with
an Intel i5.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 955379] Re: cmake hangs with qemu-arm-static

[David Sugar]

I have found several places cmake may hang, with either qemu-arm-static
or mipsel, and in debian (testing) as well as in Ubuntu.  One of them is
the cmake check for c++ compiler, which can be overridden.  Things that
use cmake's pkg_check_modules and pkg-config files will also hang.
Curiously, outside of cmake, equivs also will similarly hang if used.
All these things can make it very difficult to use qemu user static
driven chroot's or qemu pbuilder for pkg building at present.

I am also having this issue with latest qemu on quantal using an armhf
chroot.

cmake will occasionally finish, but mostly it just hangs, most often in
the pkg_check bits.

I'm afraid that's way too little detail. Assume I know nothing about
launchpad, cmake or unity, and give me a set of instructions I
can run on a machine which isn't necessarily running ubuntu to
reproduce this, preferably with as small and limited a repro case
as possible. At least, it should be a command line that starts
out "qemu <some stuff>"...

thanks

Peter, I have qemu chrootable test case under which you could fire one
command to hit the bug reliably. Only issue is, are you willing to take
a peek at 100M extractable tarball? If not, I'll try to create a smaller
one.

Yeah, 100M repro case tarball is manageable.

Ok, test case attached (80M tar). This hugely stripped one is not 100% reproducer, but do few loops and you will hit it. Instructions for using:
- extract, chroot
- cd /home/abuild/rpmbuild
- su abuild
- export RPM_BUILD_ROOT=$PWD
- rpmbuild -ba SOURCES/libshortcut.spec

Mind you, when you hit the bug it just hangs and cmake test errors are
just to speed up the process of hitting the bug (if cmake just fails you
did not hit the bug). Feel free to try with any qemu variant, they all
hang similarly when bug is hit. I think that root had some suse 1.2 one
inside.

That test case seems to have very weak reproducibility -- I think I saw

If that is the case for you (for me it reproduces it every 4-5 runs or so), there are two options:
1) put while(true) loop around the rpmbuild and you will hit it always, or
2) I can wrap up a bit bigger cmake usecase that systematically hits it. Warn you though, size will jump to 200M.

I'll take the bigger usecase, please. It's pretty hard to debug race
conditions that don't manifest often enough to let you do useful
logging.

>From the time or two I caught it hanging, it looks like qemu is sleeping in poll, and there's a zombie child process. I wonder if what's happening is that the SIGCHLD is coming in just before syscall.c executes the poll syscall, so that qemu queues the signal for delivery to the guest (but never actually delivers it) and then enters a poll syscall that won't return (because the SIGCHLD has already arrived). If so, fixing this would require the significant redesign sketched out here:

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 955379] Re: cmake hangs with qemu-arm-static

[Peter Maydell]

Actually I just managed to interact with a hung qemu under a debugger
sufficiently to confirm what is happening here.

CMake's code for running child processes (in kwsys/ProcessUNIX.c) does this:
"On UNIX, a child process is forked to exec the program.  Three output pipes are read by the parent process using a select call to block until data are ready.  Two of the pipes are stdout and stderr for the child.  The third is a special pipe populated by a signal handler to indicate that a child has terminated.  This is used in conjunction with the timeout on the select call to implement a timeout for program even when it closes stdout and stderr and at the same time avoiding races."

So (assuming no timeout set up) we can get the following race:
 * spawn child process
 * parent gets to point of making select() syscall
 * this takes the parent process into qemu's linux-user/main.c code
 * child process exits
 * host kernel sends SIGCHLD to parent
 * qemu's signal handler queues this SIGCHLD and does a cpu_exit, which will make the parent take the signal at the next basic block
 * parent code (still inside main.c or syscall.c) does the actual host select() syscall
 * this blocks forever, because the thing that would wake it up is the signal handler writing to the pipe we're selecting on, but we will never run the signal handler until select exits

Fixing this bug will indeed require the significant rework I referred to
in comment #14, I'm afraid. Don't hold your breath...

Duh, makes sense, have to think about this. Thank you for great analysis
:)

Apparently have to dig into qemu's code to understand this better, but
first thought was that do you think it would be possible to add some
crude hack bit in qemu's signal handler which we could 'almost
atomically' check prior to entering system poll/select/read/whatnot ?
This bit would tell there are user signals queued and handlers should be
executed first.. ?

Nope, it's still not going to be non-racy that way (and it would still
be a pretty invasive change so it doesn't really make it easier either
I think).

I think the answer will turn out to be "no" (though it's worth
testing anyway), because the syscall we're blocking in in this
case is select(), which is a syscall which will exit when a
signal arrives anyway. That is, I think we're really hitting
the race condition of the signal arriving while we're in QEMU's
C code, rather than the stuck-in-blocking-syscall of the boehm
GC case.

If there are signals pending in the host kernel poll will *already*
return immediately. If there is a signal pending in the QEMU signal
queue (because the host kernel just delivered it to us) then there
will always be a window between the point where you say "ok, queue
is empty" and actually doing the host syscall, where a signal could
be delivered and put in the queue. You cannot fix this bug in the way
you are trying to: you must handle this case by longjumping out of
the signal handler. I've already sketched the correct design for
fixing this.

[to anybody in the peanut gallery who is thinking about pselect()
now: yes, you could perhaps hack something up with that, but it would
still be a big patch with a bunch of corner cases to review, and
it would only fix this bug for this particular syscall, not in
general.]

Never mind, async/zero timeout call would suffer from same (albeit now

Just out of interest tried how far the timeout hackery can go working
around the issue. Well, looks like it goes quite far: having previously
reproduced the hang in 4-5 runs and in under a minute, now have had this
running without a hang for an hour. I will also test the patch under OBS
worker(s) and if it solves the issue there as well, I will attach it as
a workaround for time being for those interested. However, Peter is
right and this is not a final solution of any kind: just a workaround.

  =arm-linux-user --static in a chroot environment to compile some
  things. I ran into this problem with both pcl and opencv-2.3.1. cmake
  consistently freezes at some point during its execution, though in a
  different spot each time, usually during a step when it's searching
  for some libraries. For instance, pcl most commonly stops after:

  [snip]
  -- Boost version: 1.46.1
  -- Found the following Boost libraries:
  --   system
  --   filesystem
  --   thread
  --   date_time
  -- checking for module 'eigen3'
  --   found eigen3, version 3.0.1

  which is perplexing because it freezes after finding what it wants,
  not during the search. When it does get past that point, it does so
  almost immediately but freezes somewhere else.

I have tested cmake.patch but it doesn't work for me.
It didn't hang but it failed to run gmake.
I applied this patch onto qemu-1.3.

Luke Kim: quite unlikely that above patch would cause the issue you
see..  are you sure something else did not break in your environment?
Can you execute that same make manually?

[Luke Kim]

Janne Karhunen: Do you think if it is correct that return 0 when ts->signal_pending is true and select() returns '0' (timeout)? Because the caller doesn't expect to return select() with 0, should we return other error values such as EINTR?
When I modified you patch to return EINTR if select() return '0' when ts->signal_pending is true, it worked fine with me.

No; this is a a complicated issue to fix that basically requires a
significant restructuring of the linux-user code. Nobody's done that yet
and as far as I know nobody's said they plan to do so either.

It's just excellent illustration why I hate pipes.

So CMake guys can remove this crap from their code and use socketpair()
or like instead.

What cmake is doing is an entirely legitimate and well-recognized Unix
idiom for converting signals into effects on filedescriptors for
select(), and there's no reason for them to change it. This is
absolutely a bug in QEMU, it's just one that's not easy for us to fix.
(Using socketpair would not help here. You'd have to use signalfd(),
which of course is much less portable.)

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 955379] Re: cmake hangs with qemu-arm-static

[skunk]

ok, i've found a better place for patchset download:

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/qemu-
devel/list/?submitter=Timothy+Baldwin&q=linux-user

unfortunately cmake still hangs in a way that even sending SIGCHLD
doesn't wake it up, i have to send SIGKILL to stop it and consequently
breaking the build process...

please let me know if there's something else i could try.

thank you.

Does anybody have a reliable reproduce case for this bug? I have some

the test case attached in comment #10 to hang at all, even without the

Thanks for that report of a hang running git. I've been able to identify and fix the bug (it is a different problem to the issue that was causing cmake to hang) and have sent a patch:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/631708/
That fix will hopefully make it into QEMU 2.7.

I'm so sorry that
cmake still hang with my Ubuntu 12.04 and openSUSE 12.3 machine.
and the hanging point has changed. cmake hung at select() with old qemu. but now cmake hang at pselect6() with new qemu.
And also I could continue build by sending SIGCHLD to hanging qemu. but now cmake still hang even I send SIGCHLD to hanging qemu.

Bug description:
  I'm using git commit 3e7ecd976b06f... configured with --target-list
  =arm-linux-user --static in a chroot environment to compile some
  things. I ran into this problem with both pcl and opencv-2.3.1. cmake
  consistently freezes at some point during its execution, though in a
  different spot each time, usually during a step when it's searching
  for some libraries. For instance, pcl most commonly stops after:

  [snip]
  -- Boost version: 1.46.1
  -- Found the following Boost libraries:
  --   system
  --   filesystem
  --   thread
  --   date_time
  -- checking for module 'eigen3'
  --   found eigen3, version 3.0.1

  which is perplexing because it freezes after finding what it wants,
  not during the search. When it does get past that point, it does so
  almost immediately but freezes somewhere else.

  I'm using 64-bit Ubuntu 11.10 with kernel release 3.0.0-16-generic
  with an Intel i5.

Please provide exact reproduction instructions -- I need enough
information that I can completely replicate your setup and what you're
doing: exactly how you've set up any chroot or whatever other guest
setup you have, what cmake command you're running, and so on.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 955379] Re: cmake hangs with qemu-arm-static

[Peter Maydell]

Thanks for that test case; unfortunately it works fine for me (both with
current git master and with commit b66e10e4c9ae7384).

Can you tell me what host machine you're running this on, and in
particular whether it is 32 bit or 64 bit? Commit b66e10e4c9ae7384 will
fix this hang for x86-64 (64-bit intel) hosts, but it will only be fixed
for 32-bit intel hosts by commit 3e904d6ade7 (which also fixes this for
aarch64, arm, ppc64 and s390x hosts).

If you are using a 32-bit x86 host that would explain the failure-vs-
success that you report in comment #56. I suspect from looking at the
qemu binaries that were in your test case tarball that you are using
32-bit.

OK, so the behaviour you saw is expected since we didn't fix 32-bit
hosts until a bit later; but they should both be fixed now.

Hello, Peter Maydell
we have new qemu-arm hang issue.
I guess you are busy for new qemu 2.7 release.
But, could you please help us if you have time?

I am seeing the same symptoms as the original poster. I'm building the
opencv package in a debian stretch armfh chroot on a ubuntu bionic amd64
host. So, I'm guessing that the race condition wasn't entirely fixed or
there has been some sort of regression.

That means our assumption taken in comment #63 that it was fixed in
http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commitdiff;h=014628a705bdaf31c09915
either was wrong (unset fix released) - or this is a similar but not the
same issue (which would imply a new bug since this already has plenty of
potentially mismatching history).

Given the time this was considered closed I'd vote for a new bug to analyze things from scratch.
@David - would you mind opening a new bug?

@TJ - before considering backporting something of the current solution to xenial, (all other releases are >=2.7) would you mind testing e.g. qemu 2.10 via [1].
Also a trivial reproducer will help to make this SRUable, like David added his (for the probably new issue). Or is the one in comment #58 representing your case as well?

  almost immediately but freezes somewhere else.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 955379] Re: cmake hangs with qemu-arm-static

[Łukasz Zemczak]

What's the status of this bug? I see LP: #1764555 has been marked as invalid as the test environment was tainted - does this imply the fix was correct and everything is working as intended?
The bug is marked for 16.04.5. If it's still something we intent to get released for the point-release we would need someone to prepare an SRU as soon as possible.

Bug description:
  I'm using git commit 3e7ecd976b06f... configured with --target-list
  =arm-linux-user --static in a chroot environment to compile some
  things. I ran into this problem with both pcl and opencv-2.3.1. cmake
  consistently freezes at some point during its execution, though in a
  different spot each time, usually during a step when it's searching
  for some libraries. For instance, pcl most commonly stops after:

  [snip]
  -- Boost version: 1.46.1
  -- Found the following Boost libraries:
  --   system
  --   filesystem
  --   thread
  --   date_time
  -- checking for module 'eigen3'
  --   found eigen3, version 3.0.1

  which is perplexing because it freezes after finding what it wants,
  not during the search. When it does get past that point, it does so
  almost immediately but freezes somewhere else.

[Peter Maydell]

>From upstream QEMU's point of view the status of this bug is "it's an
old bug report that tended to accumulate 'this seems like it's the same
as my bug' extra comments; we have fixed the underlying cause of the
original bug,  so leave this one closed and file new ones with proper
reproducer instructions if necessary".

LP: #1764555 was closed because it was "bug submitter was still running
the old QEMU version and didn't realise it".
