Description

I'm running into a deadlock pretty consistently when clicking Save in the Song Info window. It happens about half the time and may occur the first time the window is opened or later.

To reproduce, I:
- add a new mp3 to my playlist,
- open the Song Info window,
- fill in the info,
- press Save.

I was able to capture the following backtrace running under gdb:

I'm not familiar with the audacious codebase and couldn't figure out what's causing this, but I'm pretty sure it's deadlocking on a mutex or something similar. (There is no abnormal CPU usage suggesting any sort of infinite loop).

The audio output plug-in is ALSA Output, ReplayGain is enabled, and the following plugins are enabled:
- Audio CD Menu Items,
- Desktop Notifications,
- MPRIS 2 Server,
- ModPlug (Module Player),
- MPG123 Plugin,
- Tact Generator,
- Tone Generator,
- WavPack Decoder,
- FLAC Decoder,
- Ogg Vorbis Decoder,
- Sndfile Plugin,
- ASXv1/ASXv2 Playlists,
- ASXv3 Playlists,
- Audacious Playlists (audpl),
- Cue Sheet Plugin,
- M3U Playlists,
- PLS Playlists,
- XML ShHareable Playlists (XSPF),
- GIO Plugin,
- Neon HTTP/HTTPS Plugin.

I'm running this on Fedora 28 (but I'm pretty sure I had the same problem under 27). The versions I have installed are:

audacious.x86_64                           3.9-3.fc28                   @fedora

History

#1 Updated by John Lindgren over 6 years ago

I think I see what is going on here.

Thread 7 (decoder/output) is waiting for space in the output buffer. I'm guessing you had Audacious paused at this point, so it might be waiting a while, which is okay.
Thread 49 (background worker) is waiting on Thread 7 (decoder/output). This is unnecessary and causes Thread 49 to hang.
Thread 1 (GUI) is waiting on Thread 49, which would normally be okay if Thread 49 weren't stuck.

Please see if this fixes the problem:

#2 Updated by John Lindgren over 6 years ago

Thanks for the excellently detailed report, by the way.

#3 Updated by John Lindgren over 6 years ago

  • % Done changed from 0 to 100
  • Target version set to 3.10
  • Status changed from New to Closed
  • Category set to libaudcore

Okay, I can reproduce this pretty easily as well, and the change above does fix it.

Key step to reproducing is to edit and try to save the tag of the currently playing song, while it's paused.

#4 Updated by Tom Thorogood over 6 years ago

Wonderful John, thank you for getting to the bottom of this! It didn't click that it was always the paused song.

I had trouble getting it to run after building from source so I can't verify the fix. If you can reproduce, I'm sure it is though.

Thanks again.

#5 Updated by Tom Thorogood over 6 years ago

I've managed to build audacious at 31b5f7fa0e (one ahead of the fix), and I can't reproduce anymore. I'm quite sure it's fixed.

Thanks heaps.
