Re: [Kamailio-Users] Fast lock loop with arm

I use openser 1.3.4. Next time that the loop happens I'll try to keep the backtrace. thanks, Daniele -----Messaggio originale----- Da: Daniel-Constantin Mierla [mailto:miconda@gmail.com] Inviato: mercoledì 24 marzo 2010 16.47 A: Zappasodi Daniele Cc: users(a)lists.kamailio.org; sr-dev Oggetto: Re: [Kamailio-Users] Fast lock loop with arm Hello, what version of kamailio do you use? Can you grab a backtrace with gdb once you get this high cpu usage? Spot one of the processes, take the pid and do: gdb /path/to/kamailio _pid_ Then: bt You should see the bactrace of executed function getting to deadloc. Make sure you get at least one SIP worker process backtrace (do kamctl ps to see the type of kamailio process).

They remain in Run for long time (sometimes hours) and openser keeps 100% CPU. Now I have changed the functions get_lock and tsl in order to obtain more info and I observe that (if and) when the process finish the cycle, it have done a big amount of cycles. This the log with my added info: Mar 26 20:29:08 SAM-IP openser[1645]: NOTICE:tm:_lock: ret 1 (cycle) Mar 26 20:29:51 SAM-IP openser[1645]: NOTICE:tm:_lock: ret 1 (cycle) Mar 26 20:29:55 SAM-IP openser[1645]: NOTICE:tm:_lock: ret 1 (cycle) Mar 26 20:29:55 SAM-IP openser[1645]: NOTICE:tm:t_retransmit_reply: MYTM lock [process in loop] Mar 26 20:33:46 SAM-IP openser[1645]: NOTICE:tm:_lock: ret 59374917 (cycle) [after 4 minutes and 59374917 cycles, this is an example with a "short" loop] Mar 26 20:33:46 SAM-IP openser[1645]: NOTICE:tm:t_retransmit_reply: MYTM lock done I'm not able to recognize the call flow that generates the loop (I know only that it always happens when t_retransmit_reply calls LOCK_REPLIES), but I urgently need a work around to escape from the loop. This is the get_lock function with my counter j: inline static int get_lock(fl_lock_t* lock) { #ifdef ADAPTIVE_WAIT int i=ADAPTIVE_WAIT_LOOPS; int j=1; /***** my change ****/ #endif while(tsl(lock)){ #ifdef BUSY_WAIT #elif defined ADAPTIVE_WAIT j++; /***** my change ****/ if (i>0) i--; else sched_yield(); #else sched_yield(); #endif } return(j); } Can I break the lock when my counter reaches a big value? Should I call the unlock function after the break? which value can be considered too big?
