Since the recent core-updates merge, I've seen the build coordinator
using less memory, but it's also been crashing in a new way, up to 10
times a day.

In the log, you see something like:

  2023-05-07 09:15:42 Signals delivery fails constantly at GC #71051
  2023-05-07 09:15:42 Signals delivery fails constantly

I'm guessing the switch from libgc-8.0.4 to libgc-8.2.2 has something to
do with this.

I think I've found a workaround. I found a list of environment variables
[1] you can set to affect the GC behaviour, and the first one I tried
(GC_RETRY_SIGNALS=0) seems to have had the desired affect, in that the
crashes/restarts have stopped.

1: https://github.com/ivmai/bdwgc/blob/master/docs/README.environment

I've sent a patch [2] to apply this setting as part of the service.

Normally on GNU/Linux libgc has:

  #define SIG_SUSPEND SIGPWR

The Coordinator fiddles with SIGALRM, SIGUSR1, SIGINT, and SIGPIPE,
which should normally be fine.

Is there anything else that might interfere with libgc?

I've seen this issue in both the build coordinator and nar-herder, both
of which use guile-sqlite, so I wonder if that could have something to
do with it.

I've seen this happen with the build coordinator agent now (on
milano-guix-1):

  2023-06-02 18:59:55 2023-06-02 18:59:55 (DEBUG): fb9f06cf-cc1d-4493-88b8-3eac9437f5d4: checking the availability of build inputs

  2023-06-02 19:01:22 Signals delivery fails constantly

  2023-06-02 19:01:29 (gnutls version: 3.7.7, guix version: 1.4.0-6.dc5430c)

Which is a bit more concerning, since the build coordinator agent is
intentionally quite simple (no SQLite for example).

The closure of (guix-build-coordinator agent) seems to be quite large
still.

Could you check what .so files are loaded by that code, perhaps via
/proc/PID/maps?

Thanks,

Hmm no idea.  I’ve never seen “Signals delivery fails” before so I
really wonder what could be causing this.  Would be great if you could
come up with a reduced test case, but I guess that won’t be easy.

Or perhaps you could run a Coordinator agent under ‘strace -f’ to see if
we get hints?
