Description Stefan Assmann 2013-08-19 08:38:11 UTC
Description of problem:
Thunderbird was keeping 1 CPU at 100% so I decided to restart it. However thunderbird never exited correctly. The GUI was gone but the process was still there.

# ps fax |grep thund
11754 pts/0    S+     0:00              |   |       \_ grep thund
 2028 ?        Sl   104:59              |   \_ /usr/lib64/thunderbird/thunderbird
# strace -p 2028
Process 2028 attached
futex(0x7f694723190c, FUTEX_WAIT_PRIVATE, 5, NULL

Waited for several minutes with no output.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
thunderbird-17.0.7-1.fc19.x86_64

How reproducible:
happens occasionally

Comment 1 Jan Horak 2013-08-19 09:36:02 UTC
If you are able to reproduce this issue please attach full backtrace when reappear again. You can follow guidelines for application freeze: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Debugging_guidelines_for_Mozilla_products#Application_freeze
Thank you.

Comment 2 Stefan Assmann 2013-08-19 09:41:34 UTC
Jan,
will do so next time this happens.

Comment 3 Stefan Assmann 2013-10-16 16:25:38 UTC

gdb backtrace

I ran
# gdb -ex 'attach 26210' -ex 'thread apply all bt full' -ex 'print DumpJSStack()' -ex 'q'

Hopefully the info is enough for some reason debuginfo-install thunderbird-17.0.8-1.fc19.x86_64 didn't find all debuginfo packages.

Comment 4 Stefan Assmann 2013-12-06 16:38:03 UTC

better gdb backtrace

Hopefully better backtrace also with newer thunderbird.
thunderbird-24.1.0-1.fc19.x86_64

# gdb -ex 'attach 2212' -ex 'thread apply all bt full' -ex 'print DumpJSStack()' -ex 'q'

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2015-01-09 19:30:47 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will
be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 6 Bill McGonigle 2015-01-10 03:39:12 UTC
Please bump to 20.  At this moment (after File ... Quit plus 5 minutes):

$ strace -p 2166
Process 2166 attached
futex(0x7f0cf98dfbcc, FUTEX_WAIT_PRIVATE, 35, NULL

$ uname -r
3.17.3-200.fc20.x86_64

$ rpm -q thunderbird
thunderbird-31.2.0-1.fc20.x86_64

Comment 7 Jan Horak 2015-01-15 15:20:06 UTC
Do you have some extension/addon installed? Please also try with fresh profile and if you be so kind, please attach updated backtrace and I'll try to look into it. Thank you.

Comment 8 Fedora End Of Life 2015-05-29 09:20:04 UTC

Comment 9 Fedora End Of Life 2015-06-29 12:17:33 UTC
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
