This is a bug report for perl from matti [at] portalify,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.39 running under perl 5.12.3.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please describe your issue here]
cond_signal does not wake another thread up even though I think it should.
The same problem appears in perl 5.10.0 in SLES 11 SP1.
The main thread joins the other thread forever:
8/2/12 12:19:01.930 PM aplicom: Failed to receive data from the socket: Interrupted system call
8/2/12 12:19:01.930 PM aplicom: Closing the socket
8/2/12 12:19:01.930 PM aplicom: Killing the post thread
8/2/12 12:19:01.931 PM aplicom: Locking to signal termination
8/2/12 12:19:01.931 PM aplicom: Signaling the post thread to terminate
8/2/12 12:19:01.931 PM aplicom: Joining the post thread
sub post {
$SIG{'TERM'} = \&termination_flag;
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$ua->timeout( $configuration->{'timeout'} );
while ($run) {
my %post;
{
syslog LOG_DEBUG, "Locking to check for new location GeoJSON data";
lock %location;
until ( %location or not $run ) {
syslog LOG_DEBUG, "Waiting for location GeoJSON data";
cond_wait %location;
}
%post = %location;
}
if (%post) {
my %feature;
while ( my ( $id, $feature ) = each %post ) {
$feature{$id} = encode_json $feature;
}
my $content = '{"type":"FeatureCollection","features":['
. join( ',', values %feature ) . ']}';
syslog LOG_INFO, "Posting location data $content";
my $response = $ua->post(
$configuration->{'url'},
'Content-Type' => 'application/json',
'Content' => $content
);
if ( $response->is_success ) {
syslog LOG_INFO, $response->as_string;
syslog LOG_DEBUG, "Locking to delete the posted location data";
lock %location;
while ( my ( $id, $feature ) = each %location ) {
if ( $feature{$id} eq encode_json $feature ) {
delete $location{$id};
}
}
}
else {
syslog LOG_WARNING, $response->as_string;
sleep $run * $configuration->{'retry'};
}
}
}
syslog LOG_NOTICE, "The post subroutine terminating";
}
until ( $thread = threads->create('post') or not $run ) {
syslog LOG_ERR, "Failed to create the post thread: $!. Retrying";
sleep $run * $configuration->{'retry'};
}
if ( defined $thread ) {
syslog LOG_NOTICE, "Killing the post thread";
$thread->kill('SIGTERM');
}
syslog LOG_NOTICE, "Locking to signal termination";
lock %location;
syslog LOG_NOTICE, "Signaling the post thread to terminate";
cond_signal %location;
if ( defined $thread ) {
syslog LOG_NOTICE, "Joining the post thread";
$thread->join();
}
