[libvirt] nwfilter deadlock with libpcap and TPACKET_V3
I've just found a deadlock in nwfilter caused by something in libpcap. There are 2 VMs running with the nwfilter stress test, but the deadlock in fact only involves VM VM. Three threads in libvirtd Thread 1 (Thread 0x7f3a26f726c0 (LWP 15384)): #0 __lll_lock_wait () at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/lowlevellock.S:135 #1 0x00007f3a22ae1cc4 in __GI___pthread_mutex_lock

So in summary:
Thread 1 is responding to QEMU SHUTDOWN event Waiting on lock VM mutex due to thread 4
Thread 4 is responding to virDomainDestroy Holds lock on VM mutex Holds lock on nwfilter update mutex Waiting on lock interface mutex due to thread 19
Thread 19 is doing nwfilter address learning Holds lock on interface mutex
Thread 19 is using libpcap to capture packets, and has told it to use a 500ms timeout. So it is in pcap_next() while holding the interface lock waiting in poll(). The code is written such that pcap_next() is expected to return on hitting the 500ms timeout and check for a request for learning to terminate. Whereupon it would release the interface lock allowing thread 4 to continnue.
As we can see from the stack trace though, pcap_next() is not honouring our 500ms timeout, and has done poll() with an infinite timeout.
This seems to be intentional behaviour from libpcap to ignore our requested timeout....
} else if (handlep->timeout > 0) { #ifdef HAVE_TPACKET3 /* * For TPACKET_V3, the timeout is handled by the kernel, * so block forever; that way, we don't get extra timeouts. * Don't do that if we have a broken TPACKET_V3, though. */ if (handlep->tp_version == TPACKET_V3 && !broken_tpacket_v3) handlep->poll_timeout = -1; /* block forever, let TPACKET_V3 wake us up */ else #endif handlep->poll_timeout = handlep->timeout; /* block for that amount of time */
We've taken the path tp_version == TPACKET_V3 && !broken_tpacket_v3.
This is the case for anything with kernel >= 3.19
/* * OK, that was a valid minor version. * Is this 3.19 or newer? */ if (major >= 4 || (major == 3 && minor >= 19)) { /* Yes. TPACKET_V3 works correctly. */ broken_tpacket_v3 = 0; }
I've no clue what it is about TPACKET_V3 that is supposed to wake us up from poll, but it clearly isn't happening :-(
Sorry, me neither, but I remembered something about timeouts being fishy in pcap back when I used it. And looking at the man page now I surely was right: NOTE: the read timeout cannot be used to cause calls that read packets to return within a limited period of time, because, on some platforms, the read timeout isn't supported, and, on other platforms, the timer doesn't start until at least one packet arrives. This means that the read timeout should NOT be used, for example, in an interactive applica‐ tion to allow the packet capture loop to ``poll'' for user input periodically, as there's no guarantee that a call reading packets will return after the timeout expires even if no packets have arrived. I'm not sure why in your particular case the timeout is just not set on purpose, but maybe that excerpt might help. Good luck with figuring this out. Have a nice weekend, Martin

So in summary:
Thread 1 is responding to QEMU SHUTDOWN event Waiting on lock VM mutex due to thread 4
Thread 4 is responding to virDomainDestroy Holds lock on VM mutex Holds lock on nwfilter update mutex Waiting on lock interface mutex due to thread 19
Thread 19 is doing nwfilter address learning Holds lock on interface mutex
Thread 19 is using libpcap to capture packets, and has told it to use a 500ms timeout. So it is in pcap_next() while holding the interface lock waiting in poll(). The code is written such that pcap_next() is expected to return on hitting the 500ms timeout and check for a request for learning to terminate. Whereupon it would release the interface lock allowing thread 4 to continnue.
As we can see from the stack trace though, pcap_next() is not honouring our 500ms timeout, and has done poll() with an infinite timeout.
This seems to be intentional behaviour from libpcap to ignore our requested timeout....
} else if (handlep->timeout > 0) { #ifdef HAVE_TPACKET3 /* * For TPACKET_V3, the timeout is handled by the kernel, * so block forever; that way, we don't get extra timeouts. * Don't do that if we have a broken TPACKET_V3, though. */ if (handlep->tp_version == TPACKET_V3 && !broken_tpacket_v3) handlep->poll_timeout = -1; /* block forever, let TPACKET_V3 wake us up */ else #endif handlep->poll_timeout = handlep->timeout; /* block for that amount of time */
We've taken the path tp_version == TPACKET_V3 && !broken_tpacket_v3.
This is the case for anything with kernel >= 3.19
/* * OK, that was a valid minor version. * Is this 3.19 or newer? */ if (major >= 4 || (major == 3 && minor >= 19)) { /* Yes. TPACKET_V3 works correctly. */ broken_tpacket_v3 = 0; }
I've no clue what it is about TPACKET_V3 that is supposed to wake us up from poll, but it clearly isn't happening :-(
Sorry, me neither, but I remembered something about timeouts being fishy in pcap back when I used it. And looking at the man page now I surely was right:
NOTE: the read timeout cannot be used to cause calls that read packets to return within a limited period of time, because, on some platforms, the read timeout isn't supported, and, on other platforms, the timer doesn't start until at least one packet arrives. This means that the read timeout should NOT be used, for example, in an interactive applica‐ tion to allow the packet capture loop to ``poll'' for user input periodically, as there's no guarantee that a call reading packets will return after the timeout expires even if no packets have arrived.
I'm not sure why in your particular case the timeout is just not set on purpose, but maybe that excerpt might help.
Luckily I discovered that we can take pcap out of the equation by asking for the underlying FD and running poll() ourselves, whereupon we can have the timeout we want again.
