[Bug 1510009] Re: Java 1.8.0_66 is extremely deadlock prone regarding AWT/GTK interaction

 

I managed to find a very similar sounding bug that is from year 2012 but
it was iced-tea specific:
http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=857

Solution there was to make sure that setLookAndFeel call happens before
any other call to swing. But I have no idea how that could be related to
this bug. Only similarity is that atk-wrapper seems to trigger bugs in
java UI code. Possible completely different issue.

Redhat bug report without any solution from year 2014:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1073984

Debian bug without solution from year 2013: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=705511

Title:
  Java 1.8.0_66 is extremely deadlock prone regarding AWT/GTK
  interaction

Status in openjdk-8 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Since upgrading to Ubuntu 15.10 from Ubuntu 15.04, the various GUI
  applications that I run, including Netbeans and Minecraft have been
  suffering from dead/waitlocks which prevent them from operating
  properly. Since I have reproduced this issue these two completely
  different codebases, I am moving the bug further upstream.

  The original Netbeans bug report can be viewed here: https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=256124
  Essentially, during routine interaction and calling of various AWT methods, somewhere between 8u45 (15.04) and 8u66 (15.10), something broke causing the application to hang intermittently when these methods are called.

  Some sample jstack traces are attached, the issue should be fairly
  obvious to spot.
