Yu-Hsin, If you could guide me through the steps on how to reproduce the issue or even share an app that would expose it, I would gladly help you to find the answers.
Meanwhile, please make sure that you run the latest master including this patch https://gerrit.iotivity.org/gerrit/#/c/2290/ Thank you, Tim From: Hung Yu-Hsin [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, August 27, 2015 8:59 PM To: Kourt, Tim A; iotivity-dev at lists.iotivity.org Subject: RE: [dev] Android JNI OnEventListener crash Hi Tim, I've tried your patch, unfortunately the client still has crash issue. However, this time the only error message is "A/libc?s Fatal signal 6 (SIGABRT), code -6 in tid 11352 (FinalizerDaemon)", without any stack trace and JNI exception details. Do you have any idea about this kind of message? Also I'm curious about why simply set weak reference to a nullptr can solve this issue? When the object is released, the weak reference is supposed to reference to a null pointer, and I also tried using IsSameObject to verify it. However, the operation is aborted by ART runtime.

This patch should help to make things a bit more robust: https://gerrit.iotivity.org/gerrit/#/c/2306/ In general, I would recommend using ??observe?? capability instead of the constant polling, unless your server doesn??t support it.

The exception basically says the native code try to access deleted weak global reference. After tracing the implementation, I found that the event listener for GET/POST/PUT/?? is stored as weak global references, which means they may be released by JVM GC on demand and then cause the crashes. iotivity<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747>/android<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android>/android_api<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android/android_api>/base<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android/android_api/base>/jni<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android/android_api/base/jni>/JniOnGetListener.cpp jobject jListener = env->NewLocalRef(m_jwListener); In the above code, the m_jwListener is a weak global reference, so it may be deleted by GC before this line called. But it seems the ART runtime didn??t return NULL as expected, but aborting the execution. Even if I try to modify them as global reference using NewGlobalRef at the constructer of JniOnGetListener (as following), sometimes the crash still occurs. iotivity<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747>/android<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android>/android_api<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android/android_api>/base<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android/android_api/base>/jni<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android/android_api/base/jni>/JniOnGetListener.h jweak m_jwListener; iotivity<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747>/android<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android>/android_api<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android/android_api>/base<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android/android_api/base>/jni<https://github.com/iotivity/iotivity/tree/8c044c478ccafb2faccbff398db02f79e4f58747/android/android_api/base/jni>/JniOnGetListener.cpp m_jwListener = env->NewWeakGlobalRef(jListener); The error log is attached.
