From 58eb29033e4d3027cfe8573791b8db9644c3a069 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Burd Date: Sun, 6 Sep 2026 18:24:22 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/6] fix(txn): release the MVCC mutex when the SIREAD reaper frees a detail __txn_reap_si_details removed a committed reader's TXN_DETAIL from the mvcc_txn list and freed it without releasing td->mvcc_mtx, while the two other detail-free paths (__txn_end, __txn_remove_buffer) both do. Every reaped detail therefore leaked one mutex slot for the life of the environment; repetition shrank the mutex region until a later valid operation returned ENOMEM ("BDB2034 unable to allocate memory for mutex"). Reached whenever a snapshot transaction both reads a multiversion database (leaving a SIREAD marker, so si_ref > 0) and writes one (mvcc_ref > 0): __txn_end parks the detail on mvcc_txn, the last MVCC buffer is evicted while the marker is still live, and the reaper -- not __txn_remove_buffer -- performs the final free. Free the mutex before the detail, under TXN_SYSTEM_LOCK, exactly as __txn_end does, so no new lock ordering is introduced. Both free paths test the same predicate, so make TXN_DTL_SNAPSHOT an explicit single-owner claim taken under td->mvcc_mtx (the latch every writer of that flag already holds). Previously __txn_remove_buffer dropped mvcc_mtx, then took the region lock and freed unconditionally; with the reaper now also freeing the mutex, that window would be a double free of the mutex slot.

Sequential read-only DB_TXN_SNAPSHOT transactions therefore accumulated one locker (and one mutex slot) each, with only one transaction ever active, until DB_ENV->txn_begin returned ENOMEM. The deferral chain was correct up to the last step: __lock_sicommit detaches the markers and flags the locker DB_LOCKER_FREED, __lock_freelocker_int defers while the detail's si_ref is nonzero, and __lock_siclean_obj later drops each obsolete marker -- but nothing then completed the deferred free. __lock_siclean_obj now uses atomic_dec's return value to notice it removed the LAST marker of a DB_LOCKER_FREED locker, and marks the locker reclaimable by clearing its td_off. The new __lock_sireap_lockers frees those lockers from __lock_sicleanup after the object partition mutexes are released. Ordering, and why this cannot use-after-free: * Freeing a locker needs LOCK_LOCKERS. The established nesting is LOCK_LOCKERS -> partition (__lock_sicommit, the deadlock detector), so the reclaim runs outside every partition mutex rather than taking LOCK_LOCKERS under one. The M2 note's "do not free lockers while holding a partition mutex" rule is preserved. * The reclaim pass deliberately dereferences no TXN_DETAIL. mpool may free the detail the instant si_ref reaches zero, so the marker count is observed only where it is safe -- as atomic_dec's return value in __lock_siclean_obj, under the partition mutex -- and the reclaim then tests only locker-local state (flag, td_off, empty heldby). This is also why the marked locker records INVALID_ROFF instead of leaving td_off pointing at a detail that may already be gone. * Lockers are reclaimed before __txn_reap_si_details, so no surviving locker can name a freed detail. * The (DB_LOCKER_FREED && td_off == INVALID_ROFF) pair is set only by __lock_siclean_obj: a live locker never carries DB_LOCKER_FREED and a still-deferred one keeps its td_off, so ordinary lockers are untouched.

Only mechanical accounting catches that shape, so each driver reads the counts back through the public statistics APIs (DB_ENV->lock_stat, ->mutex_stat, ->mutex_stat_print) and fails if they track the transaction count. leak_si_locker (#137): 2500 sequential read-only DB_TXN_SNAPSHOT transactions in one long-lived environment, one active at a time, no checkpoint. leak_si_mvcc_mtx (#138): snapshot transactions that read one multiversion database and write another, with cache churn to force MVCC eviction, so the final detail free lands in __txn_reap_si_details. Each has a control mode that creates no SIREAD marker (plain transaction / no read); the controls pass both before and after the fix, so a control failure indicts the harness rather than the library. The marker sweep is best-effort and fires on a lock-region threshold, so the fixed steady state is a sawtooth rather than a flat line. The assertion is therefore peak-per-half-of-run: equal peaks pass, and a per-transaction leak makes the second half's peak strictly larger. That is independent of both the transaction count and the sawtooth phase.

The 'upgrading our own SIREAD to WRITE' branch in __lock_get_internal removes the marker from sh_obj->sireaders but never decrements the owning detail's si_ref, unlike the other two removal sites (__lock_sicommit, __lock_siclean_obj). si_ref therefore stays permanently above the true marker count, so the detail -- and the locker deferring its free on it -- can never be reclaimed: a snapshot transaction that reads then writes the same key leaks a detail, a locker and their mutex slots every iteration until txn_begin returns ENOMEM. Safe by construction: this is the reader's OWN marker (sh_off == holder), so the detail is its live running transaction; si_ref cannot reach zero here and no reclaim can trigger underneath us. Guarded with the same td_off != INVALID_ROFF test the grant path uses. Measured: growth 672 -> 23 slots per 1000 txns and the ENOMEM is gone. --- src/lock/lock.c | 20 ++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 20 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/lock/lock.c b/src/lock/lock.c index b7c778d8d..72353ee69 100644 --- a/src/lock/lock.c +++ b/src/lock/lock.c @@ -1063,12 +1063,32 @@ again: if (obj == NULL) { /* * Upgrading our own SIREAD to WRITE: drop the * SIREAD marker to avoid self-conflicts. + * + * Account for the detail reference the marker + * held, exactly as the other two removal sites + * (__lock_sicommit, __lock_siclean_obj) do and + * with the same td_off guard the grant used. + * Without it si_ref stays permanently above the + * true marker count, so the owning detail (and + * the locker deferring on it) can never be + * reclaimed: a snapshot txn that reads then + * writes the same key leaks a detail, a locker + * and their mutex slots on every iteration until + * txn_begin returns ENOMEM. + * + * This is the reader's OWN marker (sh_off == + * holder), so the detail is its live, running + * transaction: si_ref cannot reach zero here and + * no reclaim can trigger underneath us. */ SH_TAILQ_REMOVE(&sh_obj->sireaders, sireadlp, links, __db_lock); if (atomic_read_relaxed(®ion->nsireaders) > 0) (void)atomic_dec(env, ®ion->nsireaders); + if (sh_locker->td_off != INVALID_ROFF) + (void)atomic_dec(env, + &LOCKER_TD(env, sh_locker)->si_ref); if ((ret = __lock_freelock(lt, sireadlp, LOCK_HOLDER(env, sireadlp), DB_LOCK_UNLINK | DB_LOCK_FREE)) != 0) From dc327209223a34a78354ff5f3c890ecbd9ceacb9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Burd Date: Sun, 6 Sep 2026 19:52:16 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 5/6] test(soak): clear the #137/#138 expectations and judge bounded sawtooths The soak tier (PR #143) marked ro_snapshot and mvcc_retained expect_leak=1. With #137/#138 fixed those now pass, which the harness correctly reports as UNEXPECTED PASS -> exit 1. Clear both flags. mvcc_retained needed more than a flag change. Its residual growth is a BOUNDED SAWTOOTH, not a leak: markers accumulate until the GC trigger fires (live count past half the allocated lock objects) and then collapse. Measured over 30k txns the locker count runs 175 -> 112 -> 43 -> 178 with no ENOMEM -- it oscillates, it does not climb. A least-squares slope cannot express that, and a 2000-txn window lands mid-rise and reads as a leak. Two changes so the check states the honest property: - soak_peak_grew(): a counter over tolerance is only a leak if the SECOND half also peaks >10% higher than the first. A leak climbs; a sawtooth returns. - per-workload min_txns: mvcc_retained asserts over >=25000 txns so the window covers a full collect cycle (its period is ~19k). The run reports when it raises the count. Tier now: 5 workloads, 0 unexpected outcomes, exit 0. The three controls (rw_plain, aborted, cursor_churn) still pass, so the check has not been defanged. --- test/soak/test_soak_resources.c | 94 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 81 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) diff --git a/test/soak/test_soak_resources.c b/test/soak/test_soak_resources.c index 4e931913a..ee25dc0ba 100644 --- a/test/soak/test_soak_resources.c +++ b/test/soak/test_soak_resources.c @@ -104,6 +104,14 @@ typedef struct soak_workload { const char *issue; /* Which counters this workload asserts on; 0 => all of them. */ unsigned mask; + /* + * Minimum transactions needed for a meaningful verdict.
