I've been running into an issue with Shepherd on one of my machines. Every so often (and I haven't figured out what conditions trigger it), my Shepherd instances (both home and PID 1) will go unresponsive. I thought I had tracked it down to a misbehaving home service that I had configured, but it's just happened again without that service running.

'herd status' hangs indefinitely:

jfred@terracard ~$ sudo herd status
Password: 
<never returns>

...on both instances:

jfred@terracard ~$ herd status
<never returns>

The PID 1 shepherd instance isn't reaping defunct processes:

jfred@terracard ~$ ps aux | grep -i lock
jfred      541  0.0  0.0   3700  2304 ?        S    18:30   0:00 swayidle -w timeout 300 swaylock -f -i ~/.wallpapers/user-manual.jpg timeout 10 if pgrep swaylock; then swaymsg "output * dpms off"; fi resume swaymsg "output * dpms on" before-sleep swaylock -f -i ~/.wallpapers/user-manual.jpg
jfred     3111  0.0  0.0      0     0 ?        Z    18:53   0:00 [swaylock] <defunct>
jfred     3112  0.0  0.0      0     0 ?        Zs   18:53   0:00 [swaylock] <defunct>

Some further troubleshooting... strace indicates that it's waiting on a read() on its fd 9:

jfred@terracard ~ [env]$ sudo strace -fp 1
Password: 
strace: Process 1 attached with 5 threads
[pid   144] read(9,  <unfinished ...>
[pid   142] futex(0x7fa43892abe8, FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET_PRIVATE|FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME, 0, NULL, FUTEX_BITSET_MATCH_ANY <unfinished ...>
[pid   141] futex(0x7fa43892abe8, FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET_PRIVATE|FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME, 0, NULL, FUTEX_BITSET_MATCH_ANY <unfinished ...>
[pid   140] futex(0x7fa43892abe8, FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET_PRIVATE|FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME, 0, NULL, FUTEX_BITSET_MATCH_ANY^

...which seems to be:

jfred@terracard ~ [env]$ sudo ls -l /proc/1/fd/9
lr-x------ 1 root root 64 Jul 17 20:39 /proc/1/fd/9 -> 'pipe:[4015]'

My system configuration for this machine can be found here, and I last ran a 'guix pull' on June 21: https://github.com/jfrederickson/dotfiles/blob/master/guix/guix/system/machines/terracard/config.scm

Has anyone else run into this?
