Multiprocessing Deadlock with v0.4.0 #732
Description
Hi,
The following causes py-spy to hang randomly, both with --subprocess and without. When we looked at the process, it seems like one thread is waiting to to recv from a channel.
In this reproducer, you'll see that one of the samples will cause it to hang forever.
$ cat py_spy_crash.py
#!/usr/bin/env python3
from concurrent.futures import ProcessPoolExecutor
from scipy.signal import lfilter
for ix in range(2):
with ProcessPoolExecutor(1) as executor:
executor.submit(lfilter, [1.0], [1.0], [1.0]).result()
print(f"done with {ix=}", flush=True)
$ for i in `seq 100`; do time -p py-spy record -o /dev/null --subprocesses -- ./py_spy_crash.py; done
You can also run it without --subprocesses and see that this happens.
$ for i in `seq 100`; do time -p py-spy record -o /dev/null -- ./py_spy_crash.py; done
