Bug #7648

closed

GServer does not close cleanly from signal interrupt context

Added by jleo3 (Joe Leo) about 11 years ago. Updated over 10 years ago.

Status:
Rejected
Target version:
ruby -v:
ruby 2.0.0dev (2013-01-02 trunk 38676) [i686-linux]
Backport:
[ruby-core:51226]

Description

SUMMARY:
When a signal interrupt is trapped, we can no longer call #close on GServer without it throwing a ThreadError.

STEPS TO REPEAT:

  1. Run the following code:

    require 'gserver'

    server = GServer.new 8080
    server.start
    trap("SIGINT") { server.stop }
    gets # or any command that keeps the process running

  2. Hit CTRL+C or whichever command will send the interrupt signal to this program.

WHAT I EXPECTED: In version 1.9.3, CTRL+C sends an interrupt signal and the program exits cleanly.

WHAT HAPPENED: When running the version from trunk the following stack trace is thrown.

^C/home/joe/.rvm/rubies/ruby-head/lib/ruby/2.0.0/gserver.rb:116:in synchronize': can't be called from trap context (ThreadError) from /home/joe/.rvm/rubies/ruby-head/lib/ruby/2.0.0/gserver.rb:116:in stop'
from gserver_bug.rb:5:in block in <main>' from gserver_bug.rb:6:in call'
from gserver_bug.rb:6:in gets' from gserver_bug.rb:6:in gets'
from gserver_bug.rb:6:in `'

POSSIBLY RELEVANT: https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6416

NOTE: This was tried with AND without RVM with the same results.

Holding mutex in trap is deadlockable. It is what ruby complained. The best workaround is to make new thread in trap handler and stop gserver asynchnorously, I think.
