Description Andoni 2011-02-17 02:24:41 PST
I have noticed a random lock in the webkit source fetching an uri. It looks like no buffers are pushed into the appsrc

Comment 1 Philippe Normand 2011-02-28 01:31:22 PST
Hi Andoni, have you had time to investigate this issue further?

If not, I can help maybe? The issue is reproducible with your hls element, right?
Comment 2 Andoni 2011-02-28 02:02:47 PST
I am on vacations and I couldn't debug it further but it can be reproduced with the hls element.
Comment 3 Philippe Normand 2011-04-12 06:53:59 PDT
With patch in Bug 58318 the player starts loading the stream but a segfault is triggered in ResourceHandleSoup :P Will investigate that issue...

Then I can check this deadlock!
Comment 4 Philippe Normand 2011-04-13 05:50:37 PDT
I can't reproduce that exact deadlock here. However I found some issues related to multi-threading in ResourceHandleSoup.

The hlsdemux element runs a thread which creates a WebKitWebSrc element (and that chains into WebKit's resource loader) for each fragment to get from the server.

It seems that using a GRefPtr in the libsoup read/close callbacks triggers some threadsafety crashes like this one:

Would it make sense to not use GRefPtr in those callbacks? Sergio? Martin?

It seems dangerous to remove the RefPtr here. What happens if the ResourceHandle is dereffed out of existence on another thread?

The crash in comment 4. The destructor of Timer checks the thread where it was created with the current thread and ASSERTs if they differ.

There must be a bette way to handle this than not using RefPtr because some of its side effects.
