From 0ba3773c7898dd1eb3426d502fc6e92c3b88e082 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oliver Kurz Date: Mon, 6 Jul 2026 14:53:44 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] fix(test): avoid restarting finished processes in batch subtest Motivation: t/02_parallel.t's 'batch' subtest called `$c->start()` on the whole Pool after adding a 3rd process. Pool proxies `start()` to every member, so the 2 already-finished processes got re-forked too, racing with the new process's output under CI resource constraints (observed failing on macOS latest-Perl runners). Design Choices: use `$c->last->start()` to start only the newly added process, matching the pattern already used later in the same subtest. Benefits: removes unnecessary re-forking and the associated race, making the test deterministic.

When multiple forked processes race to create the same semaphore, the loser's create call fails with EEXIST and confess()es, killing that child instead of just using the semaphore the winner created. Reproduced locally: 30 processes racing to create the same semaphore key fail ~15-35% of the time; after the fix, 0/30 across repeated runs. Design Choices: on a failed create, fall back to a lookup instead of failing outright, since a failed create in this code path can only mean another process won the race and already created it. Benefits: removes a source of spurious child-process deaths under concurrent semaphore/lock creation, without changing the semaphore's external behavior.

IPC::SharedMem objects do not automatically detach from shared memory when garbage- collected, causing persistent attachment leaks in the parent and child processes that eventually corrupt and exhaust shared resources. Design Choices: added an explicit detach() call to Memory::DESTROY wrapped in an eval block, ensuring any active shared memory attachments are safely released whenever a shared_memory instance goes out of scope, while still executing cleanups (remove) when destroy is set. Benefits: completely eliminates persistent shared memory attachment leaks, ensuring clean test isolation, resource reclamation, and stable execution under concurrent/stress environments. --- lib/Mojo/IOLoop/ReadWriteProcess/Shared/Memory.pm | 8 +++++++- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/lib/Mojo/IOLoop/ReadWriteProcess/Shared/Memory.pm b/lib/Mojo/IOLoop/ReadWriteProcess/Shared/Memory.pm index ff79ac1..601b414 100644 --- a/lib/Mojo/IOLoop/ReadWriteProcess/Shared/Memory.pm +++ b/lib/Mojo/IOLoop/ReadWriteProcess/Shared/Memory.pm @@ -214,6 +214,12 @@ sub lock_section { sub stat { shift->_shared_memory->stat } -sub DESTROY { $_[0]->remove if $_[0]->destroy() } +sub DESTROY { + my $self = shift; + if ($self->_shared_memory) { + eval { $self->_shared_memory->detach() }; + } + $self->remove if $self->destroy(); +} !!42;
