@mrjj no, where I can search that bug?

@mrjj Thanks

@Kiyov09
Hope you find something.

Is it always after the same amount of calls?

[Kiyov09]

@mrjj I do not know, I have done this test.

Hi and welcome to devnet,

I'd change the delete statement by socket->deleteLater() to ensure that you are not deleting the sockets while there's still an event going on the socket.

[Kiyov09]

@mrjj No, but it made approximately 1348 calls.

@SGaist Even changing the delete statement by socket->deleteLeter() the problem persist.

Apparently all starts in the call to QNativeSocketEnginePrivate::nativeSelect.

Hello everyone,

sorry for reviving that old thread, but it looks nearly the same as my problem.

I am using QT 5.6.2 on a headless gentoo. My (QCore) application is using sockets with multiple threads.

The threads are in a threadpool. Every thread sends its result to the same target after finishing its work (~0.5 to 10 seconds). Each "sends its result" involves a code like this:

int WorkerThread::sendMessageOverTCPSocket(const QString & result, const QString &ip, const quint16 &port)
{
  try
  {
	QTcpSocket socket;
	socket.connectToHost(ip,port);
	if(socket.waitForConnected(10203))
	{
		socket.write(result.toStdString().c_str(),result.length());
		if(!socket.waitForBytesWritten(5134))
		{
			ss << m_id <<":timeout while writing data to socket";
			LOG(ss.str().c_str()); ss.str("");
			return Constants::TCPSOCKETERROR::TIMEOUT_WAIT_WRITTEN;
		}
	}
	else
	{
		ss << m_id <<":could not connect to socket";
		LOG(ss.str().c_str()); ss.str("");
		return Constants::TCPSOCKETERROR::TIMEOUT_CONNECTED;
	}
	socket.close();
  }
  catch (std::exception &e)
  {
	qFatal("Error(%s) sending results ",e.what());
  }
  catch (...)
  {
	qFatal("Unknown error occured while trying to send results");
  }

  return 0;
}

After about 1100 -1300 threads, the application always terminates. This may take up to a couple of days until it happens "naturally". The one I am currently investigating terminates with SIGABRT.

No immediate output or log can be found.

This is a bt from a sample coredump

#0  0x00007faa868442b8 in raise () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#1  0x00007faa868456da in abort () from /lib64/libc.so.6

#8  0x00007faa8a06a5dc in QAbstractSocket::waitForConnected(int) () from /usr/lib64/libQt5Network.so.5

The line number points to the if(socket.waitForConnected(10203))

Can someone hint me to the right direction? There seems to be no solution posted to the problem of OP

Edit: Updated code

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Are you sure you are cleaning up properly your resources when you're done ?

[Jodavi]

@SGaist
Thanks for the welcome!

The resources in use are all local and should get cleaned up, once they are out of scope.
See the update in my post above.

I am not sure whether this really is "properly cleaning up". Actually, I assumed the DTOR of the QTCPSocket is enough?
From the docs:

[virtual] QTcpSocket::~QTcpSocket()
Destroys the socket, closing the connection if necessary.
See also close().

My current vague suspicion:
Is the line socket.close(); positioned correctly?

[SGaist]

Looks like it.

How are you handling your thread pool ?
