Bug ID: 78184
Summary: std::call_once freezes on second execution if the
callable threw an exception on first execution
Product: gcc
Version: 5.4.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: simon.heybrock at esss dot se
Target Milestone: ---
=== Overview ===
If the callable in std::call_once throws an exception, a subsequent execution
of std::call_once causes a freeze.
Error observed with:
- gcc version 5.4.0 20160609 (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.2)
- g++ (GCC) 6.2.1 20160830
Works with:
- g++ (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-4)
=== Example 1 ===
Compiled with: g++ --std=c++11 -fopenmp
#include <iostream>
#include <mutex>
#include <stdexcept>
struct Cache {
mutable std::once_flag flag;
void cache() const {
std::cout << "caching...\n";
throw std::runtime_error("error");
}
void freeze() const {
std::cout << "freeze?\n";
std::call_once(flag, &Cache::cache, this);
}
};
int main() {
Cache cache;
try {
cache.freeze();
} catch (std::runtime_error &) {
}
try {
cache.freeze();
} catch (std::runtime_error &) {
}
}
# Expected output:
freeze?
caching...
freeze?
caching...
# Actual output:
freeze?
caching...
freeze?
^C
=== Example 2 ===
A similar, slightly longer example can be found at
http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/thread/call_once.
# Expected output:
Simple example: called once
throw: call_once will retry
throw: call_once will retry
Didn't throw, call_once will not attempt again
# Actual output:
Simple example: called once
throw: call_once will retry
^C
=== Details ===
$ g++ -v
