[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] thread: move detach_thread from creating thread to created thread |
Date: |

If we create a thread with QEMU_THREAD_DETACHED mode, QEMU may get a segfault
in a low probability.
The backtrace is:
address@hidden, address@hidden) at util/qemu_thread_posix.c:512
at io/task.c:141
address@hidden) at io/channel_socket.c:194
The root cause of this problem is a bug of glibc(version 2.17,the latest
version have the same bug),
let's see what happened in glibc's code.
Here is the code slice of pthread_detach.c
25 int
26 pthread_detach (pthread_t th)
27 {
28 struct pthread *pd = (struct pthread *) th;
29
30 /* Make sure the descriptor is valid. */
31 if (INVALID_NOT_TERMINATED_TD_P (pd))
32 /* Not a valid thread handle. */
34 return ESRCH;
35
36 int result = 0;
37 /* Mark the thread as detached. */
38 if (atomic_compare_and_exchange_bool_acq (&pd->joinid, pd, NULL))
39 {
40 /* There are two possibilities here. First, the thread might
41 already be detached. In this case we return EINVAL.
42 Otherwise there might already be a waiter. The standard does
43 not mention what happens in this case. */
44 if (IS_DETACHED (pd))
45 result = EINVAL;
46 }
47 else
48 /* Check whether the thread terminated meanwhile. In this case we
49 will just free the TCB. */
50 if ((pd->cancelhandling & EXITING_BITMASK) != 0)
51 /* Note that the code in __free_tcb makes sure each thread
52 control block is freed only once. */
53 __free_tcb (pd);
54 return result;
55}
QEMU get a segfault at line 50, becasue pd is an invalid address.
pd is still valid at line 38 when set pd->joinid = pd, at this moment,
created thread is just exiting(only keeps runing for a short time),
created thread is running in code of start_thread:
404 /* If the thread is detached free the TCB. */
405 if (IS_DETACHED (pd))
406 /* Free the TCB. */
407 __free_tcb (pd);
created thread found that pd is detached, so it freed pd, in this case,
pd became an invalid address.
I rewrite qemu_thread_create to move detach_thread from creating thread to
created
to avoid this concurrency problem.
