Bug ID: 68921 Summary: [5/6 Regression] std::future::wait() makes invalid futex calls and spins Product: gcc Version: 5.3.1 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: libstdc++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: redi at gcc dot gnu.org CC: torvald at gcc dot gnu.org Target Milestone: --- Target: i?86-*linux* On 32-bit linux the following spins in a tight loop until it times out: #include <future> #include <thread> int main() { std::promise<void> p; auto f = p.get_future(); std::thread t([&p](){ std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(10)); p.set_value(); }); f.wait(); t.join(); } strace shows thousands of invalid calls: futex(0x8cf2a24, FUTEX_WAIT, 2147483648, {4289120584, 134527555}) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) It's called from the infinite loop in __atomic_futex_unsigned::_M_load_and_test_until in <bits/atomic_futex.h>
