Description Martin Pluskal 2015-02-20 18:11:58 UTC
When running testsuite on current openSUSE-Tumbleweed, with gcc-4.8.3, following failure occurs:

Comment 1 Joel Rosdahl 2015-03-08 16:18:11 UTC
That's strange, can't reproduce the problem. Can you attach ccache.log from testdir.* to the bug report?
Comment 2 Martin Pluskal 2015-03-10 08:52:31 UTC
File is unfortunetally too large for bugzilla attachment so its provided here (https://www.dropbox.com/s/bl02gk9dyivk9m0/ccache.log.xz?dl=0)

Build fails locally or on build service (see https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:pluskalm:branches:devel:tools:building/ccache) - for reasons unknown to me only i586 build fails.
Comment 3 Joel Rosdahl 2015-03-29 15:12:56 UTC
Thanks.

1. What file system are you using?
2. Could you try this patch and see if it makes a difference? https://git.samba.org/?p=ccache.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=1032c0bb24c89bc7d7591fa39aafbce778c433f9
3. When ccache runs amok, could you attach to it with strace, save the log and attach/send it?[*] This could give clues to whether ccache makes any bad assumptions about the syscalls.

[*]: I.e., something like this: strace -p $(pidof ccache) 2>ccache.strace

1) filesystem is btrfs
2) will try
3) see attached partial log (last 1024 lines) - can provide full if requested
Comment 5 Martin Pluskal 2015-03-30 15:33:58 UTC
Hmm seems that issue does not occur when xfs is used.
Comment 6 Joel Rosdahl 2015-03-30 19:18:18 UTC
Yeah, I'm not surprised that it's filesystem-related.

I would like to understand what happens when the repeated

    lockfile_acquire: symlink /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/ccache-3.2.1/testdir.2712/.ccache/5/stats.lock: Permission denied

logs appear. The strace log you attached unfortunately doesn't seem to include information about it. Looks like you are passing "-f" to strace so that it follows forks? System calls made by other processes than ccache are not of interest for debugging this problem, I think.

So yes, if you can share more of the strace log, or do it in a more targeted way (e.g. waiting for ccache to hang and then attaching to the running process), that would helpful.

In more detail, I'm looking for syscall traces of lock creation calls, i.e. symlink(".../stats.lock", ...), when they go bad. Something about btrfs's behavior trips ccache up.

Sure: full log is at https://www.dropbox.com/s/sr4lfg8et3x14eu/strace.log.xz?dl=0
Comment 8 Joel Rosdahl 2015-05-01 14:42:45 UTC
Thanks.

Was the strace done with or without the patch I mentioned earlier (https://git.samba.org/?p=ccache.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=1032c0bb24c89bc7d7591fa39aafbce778c433f9)?
Comment 9 Martin Pluskal 2015-06-19 12:20:30 UTC
(In reply to Joel Rosdahl from comment #8)
Sorry for late reply, strace was captured without patch, nevertheless with latest release (3.2.2) I am not able to reproduce issue.
Comment 10 Joel Rosdahl 2015-06-20 12:56:51 UTC
Great, then I think that the mentioned commit fixed the bug.
Comment 11 Joel Rosdahl 2015-06-20 12:57:10 UTC
Fix included in v3.2.2.
