-----------------------------------
Summary: bro process would get stuck/freeze with myricom drivers
Key: BIT-1306
URL: https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-1306
Project: Bro Issue Tracker
Issue Type: Problem
Components: Bro
Affects Versions: git/master
Environment: OS: FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE-p5 OS
bro version 2.3-328
git log -1 --format="%H"

Reporter: Aashish Sharma
When I stop bro (in cluster mode), one of the bro worker process (random) would
get stuck and wouldn't shutdown, stop or even be killed using kill -s 9.
System has to be ultimately rebooted to remove stuck bro process.
On running myri_start_stop I see:
# /usr/local/opt/snf/sbin/myri_start_stop stop
Removing myri_snf.ko
kldunload: can't unload file: Device busy
It appears that the myri_snf.ko driver cannot be unloaded because of the stuck
bro process. That process still has an open descriptor on the Sniffer
device/driver and bro process freezes
More details:
The bro process is stuck in RNE state
R Marks a runnable process.
N The process has reduced CPU scheduling priority (see setpriority(2)).
E The process is trying to exit.
Here is an example:
### stuck process:
[bro@01 ~]$ ps auxwww | fgrep 1616
bro 1616 100.0 0.0 758040 60480 ?? RNE 2:57PM 53:50.04
/usr/local/bro-git/bin/bro -i myri0 -U .status -p broctl -p broctl-live -p
local -p worker-1-1 mgr.bro broctl base/frameworks/cluster local-worker.bro
broctl/auto
####when checking for process in proc:
[bro@c ~]$ ls -l /proc/1616
ls: /proc/1616: No such file or directory
