Bug #8996: pthread_mutex_lock EINVAL
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8996

Author: stevegoobermanhill (stephen gooberman-hill)
Status: Open
Priority: Normal

Target version: 
ruby -v: ruby 2.0.0p195 (2013-05-14 revision 40734) [x86_64-linux]
Backport: 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: UNKNOWN


ruby crashes leaving a stacktrace. . Cause is pthread_mutex_lock EINVAL

Based on the ruby source line where the problem happens (line 121 below) 

  119 def stop
  120       if @tcpServerThread
  121         @tcpServerThread.raise StandardError,"stop"
  122      end
  123 end

I suspect that the problem is there is a kind of race condition where @tcpServerThread has actually been destroyed (or is in the process of being destroyed) between lines 120 and 121. I am guessing that this results in thread_pthread.c (line 212 where the error occurs) checking that the pthread_mutex is either available or in EBUSY state, and throwing an error when it is not.

I'm not sure how one would solve it though...

Kind regards

Steve
