Description

Using up-to-date mythtv 0.22-fixes. Sometimes mythshutdown (started from mythbackend) doesn't shut the machine down. Not sure when and why. I have disabled active EIT recently but it didn't help, see the following mythbackend log from yesterday night:

2009-12-13 22:53:03.313 I'm idle now... shutdown will occur in 60 seconds.

...

Yesterday at 22:54:04 it should have shut down. 24 hours later the running processes are (ps ax | grep myth):

 2912 ?        Ssl    6:59 /usr/local/myth/bin/mythbackend -d -l /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log
 4783 ?        SNl    0:00 mythshutdown --shutdown
21734 ?        Sl     0:07 mythwelcome

If, in this state, I run the mythshutdown -q manually it does shut down properly. What's bad is that when it's in this zombie state it doesn't record anything like if scheduling was disabled. The MythWelcome? even shows that next recording will start this morning which was 10 hours ago. So the backend is sort of unusable and needs to be restarted to get things recording again.

Related frontend log:

2009-12-13 22:53:00.803 MythWelcome received a RECORDING_LIST_CHANGE event
2009-12-13 22:53:02.317 MythWelcome received a SCHEDULE_CHANGE event
2009-12-13 22:54:06.080 MythWelcome received a SHUTDOWN_NOW event

and there the frontend log ends.

Yesterday night it happened again. I am wondering what is the ANN Monitor and why it is being added and removed constantly. Maybe that's what prevents MythTV from shutting down?

... this continued for another hour until I came in and ran mythshutdown -q manually. That turned it off immediately.

comment:3 Changed 14 years ago by Petr Stehlik <pstehlik@…>

Something new observed today: mythbackend started mythshutdown and that one got stuck waiting for some UPnP stuff?? It seems like it's trying to use UPnP to find the local database and gets stuck there...

pstree shows:

mythbackend(2990)-->mythshutdown(4796)-->{mythshutdown}(4800)

ps ax shows:

4796 ? SNl 0:00 mythshutdown --setwakeup 2010-02-10T17:43:00

there is no process with pid 4800 so I attached the gdb to pid 4796 and ran backtrace:

I have similar observations. My script for setting the wakeup time into NvRam? is writing it's own log. It often has no entry, when the machine is shut down by mythshutdown.

Further mythshutdown is crashing quite often with different random segfaults:

/var/log/syslog:Feb 17 02:52:51 karamea kernel: [  886.127873]
mythshutdown[3326]: segfault at 8fbb478 ip 05305858 sp bfab49e0 error 7 in

In this case mythbackend apparently restarts the countdown and retries mythshutdown after a while.

Petr,

It seems fairly clear that the mythshutdown segfaults are preventing it from working, but I have two requests-- first, if at all possible can you run tests on a *completely clean* .23-fixes build (installed on a fresh system or making sure to clear out ALL the myth libraries first to ensure a clean build/install environment) and if mythshutdown still fails, then can we get a backtrace of the failure with debug symbols?

comment:6 Changed 14 years ago by pstehlik@…

I couldn't see the segfaults but I believe you that they were there. Anyway, since I upgraded to 0.23-fixes (couple of weeks ago) I haven't seen the failed shutdown yet. So hopefully it's fixed. Please close as is, I'd reopen with a backtrace had it happen again. Thanks!

Thanks for reporting back, Petr.
