I'd like another pair of eyes as what I see in a backtrace looks strange.
The full backtrace is attached, two excerpts inline below.
With Fedora 11 (and never before) I see deadlocks in Audacious
occasionally. It's not too easy to reproduce, but starting something
resource-hungry while playing ogg/mp3 makes the player hang up
occasionally.
Two threads enter poll(). One is the Gtk main-loop, the other one the ALSA
plugin play-loop that uses alsa-lib. But why does thread #1 (the Gtk
main-loop) switch to the same fds array address 0x319ff4 as thread #2?
Originally, g_poll() was called with a different pointer 0x8a5fdd8. Why
does the fds address change between g_poll() and poll() while the nfds and
timeout args stay unchanged? What am I missing here?
[Secondly, alsa-lib's snd_pcm_wait calls poll() with an infinite timeout,
which looks dangerous. Obviously, one should only do that if there are
certain guarantees, but apparently those aren't satisfied here.]
