Any way to kill tbb's private_server?

Open mattpulver opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Question: How can one kill the tbb::detail::r1::rml::private_server that appears to be silently spawned by using a tbb::task_arena?

Motivation: We are experiencing many intermittent false positive tsan data race warnings in Google Tests due to two things:

  • The tbb::detail::r1::rml::private_server survives in between tests.
  • The stack depth exceeds the maximum limit (7) resulting in [failed to restore the stack] messages.

A detailed account is given here but a typical stack trace is copied here:

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race /usr/local/foo-deps/20220316/include/c++/9.4.0/shared_mutex:639 in std::shared_lock<std::shared_mutex>::shared_lock(std::shared_mutex&, std::defer_lock_t)

The test GetStringViews which spawned the tbb::detail::r1::rml::private_server thread survived through to a subsequent serially executed test BuildTranslationMapToPartialOverlapProxy. Since the first test read from address 0x7ffda4d64fd8 and the second test wrote to the same address, it is incorrectly flagged as a data race by tsan.

If we could somehow kill the tbb::detail::r1::rml::private_server in between tests then it seems we wouldn't have this problem.
