I think I happened to hit this while testing today's 'pu' that hasn't been pushed out. The process chain looks like this: pid command stuck at 4767 sh t5800-remote-helpers.sh wait4(-1) 4793 git push read(6) 4809 git-remote-testgit wait4(4906) 4906 git fast-import wait4(4912) 4912 git-fast-import read(0) lr-x------ 1 junio junio 64 Nov 2 18:21 /proc/4793/fd/6 -> pipe:[133037701] l-wx------ 1 junio junio 64 Nov 2 18:21 /proc/4793/fd/7 -> pipe:[133037700] lr-x------ 1 junio junio 64 Nov 2 18:21 /proc/4793/fd/8 -> pipe:[133037701] lr-x------ 1 junio junio 64 Nov 2 18:05 /proc/4809/fd/0 -> pipe:[133037700] l-wx------ 1 junio junio 64 Nov 2 18:05 /proc/4809/fd/1 -> pipe:[133037701] lr-x------ 1 junio junio 64 Nov 2 18:05 /proc/4906/fd/0 -> pipe:[133037700] l-wx------ 1 junio junio 64 Nov 2 18:05 /proc/4906/fd/1 -> pipe:[133037701] lr-x------ 1 junio junio 64 Nov 2 18:03 /proc/4912/fd/0 -> pipe:[133037700] l-wx------ 1 junio junio 64 Nov 2 18:03 /proc/4912/fd/1 -> pipe:[133037701] So "git push (4793)" is stuck reading from pipe:[133037701], expecting the innermost "git-fast-import (4912)" to write to it via its standard output, but the latter is waiting to read from pipe:[133037700], hoping the former to write to it via its fd#7. Does this deadlock ring a bell to anybody who's involved in these codepaths? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
