------- Comment #39 from lupus@xxxxxxxxxx 2006-12-01 04:04 MST -------
The broken signal handler code was not the cause of the issue: it could corrupt
data on the stack, but I think this happened to only stomp on data that the jit
would use if it had to do stack unwind of that stack frame, which I didn't see
actually happen. I guess it was just a bit frustrating to find that code there
after it was pointed out to be faulty months ago.
Yesterday evening I did about 1500 runs and they were all successfull, with no
hang on this same K29 box.
The patch does more locking than needed, but the lock used is recursive and it
is placed in places where it was supposed to be held anyway (yesterday night I
didn't have the time to go and review all the code and find the spot which
didn't take it).
It would be good to have more data points from executing rug ping in a loop on
other SMP boxes with the fixed mono.
