[Bug 1479059] [NEW] sporadic livelock blocks quitting thunderbird

 

Public bug reported:

Sporadically (sometimes nearly always) thunderbird consumes 100% CPU
when I try to close the program.

Investigation with ltrace shows an infinite sequence of these calls:

pthread_mutex_unlock(0x7fd8786d9040, 0x7fd8786d9670, 0x40000000, 13) = 0
pthread_mutex_lock(0x7fd8786d9040, 177, 0, 0x2f7e) = 0
pthread_mutex_unlock(0x7fd8786d9040, 0, 8192, 13) = 0
pthread_mutex_lock(0x7fd8786d9040, 184, 0, 3)    = 0
pthread_mutex_unlock(0x7fd8786d9040, 0x7fd8786d9670, 0x40000000, 13) = 0
pthread_mutex_lock(0x7fd8786d9040, 177, 0, 0x2f7e) = 0
pthread_mutex_unlock(0x7fd8786d9040, 0, 8192, 13) = 0
pthread_mutex_lock(0x7fd8786d9040, 184, 0, 3)    = 0

Then I have to abort thunderbird with 'kill -TERM'.

I'm running thunderbird 1:31.8.0+build1-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 on Ubuntu
14.04.2 LTS (trusty) on a x86_64 (Core2 Duo) system.

Disabling all extensions didn't help (but somtimes changed the behaviour
for a number of starts/stops - different timing?).
