Fix: notification-thread: handling event from a removed tracer event src
Issue ===== The issue is caused by a race condition where the `lttng_poll_wait()` returns a _REMOVE_TRACER_EVENT_SOURCE event followed by an actual notification event on the removed event source fd. This causes the notification thread to remove the fd from the potential notification sources list and later fail to find that same fd in the next iteration. This race condition can lead to the notification thread to hang indefinitely or to failed assertions within the `fini_thread_state()` function. Fix === When removing an tracer event source, force the notification thread `lttng_poll_wait()` loop to restart to ignore events from the removed fd. Use the `restart_poll` for that purpose (see note below). Reproducer ========== It's easy to reproduce this issue by adding a `usleep(5000)` just before the `lttng_poll_wait()` call in the notification thread. Note ==== It's the second time that I fix this issue. It was first fixed by this commit by adding the `restart_poll` flag: commit 8b52406 Author: Francis Deslauriers <[email protected]> Date: Thu Dec 10 15:41:29 2020 -0500 notification-thread: drain all tracer notification on removal and later, that other commit refactored that code but accidently removed the use of the `restart_poll`: commit 34bf4f6 Author: Francis Deslauriers <[email protected]> Date: Wed May 26 16:05:16 2021 -0400 notification-thread: remove fd from pollset on LPOLLHUP and friends Signed-off-by: Francis Deslauriers <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jérémie Galarneau <[email protected]> Change-Id: I6da0ed4374b612934adc72fb88d5c142505c5d53
