Hi,
I was wondering if anyone observed a similar problems. In essence, we recently
upgrade from v2.8.2 to 3.4.0 and we are now noticing random crashed when
launching many of our applications. Note that we also upgraded from VS2005 to
VS2013, so technically it can also be a compiler issue as well. Hopefully you
guys can guide me a little towards where to investigate;)
I’ve been able to isolate the crash in Win32Mutex.cpp, the lock() and unlock()
functions:
Code:
Mutex::Mutex(MutexType type):
_mutexType(type)
{
Win32MutexPrivateData *pd = new Win32MutexPrivateData();
_prvData = static_cast<void *>(pd);
}
int Mutex::lock() {
Win32MutexPrivateData *pd =
static_cast<Win32MutexPrivateData*>(_prvData);
[b]if(!pd) return 0; /////// ADDED THIS SANITY CHECK[/b]
#ifdef USE_CRITICAL_SECTION
// Block until we can take this lock.
EnterCriticalSection( &(pd->_cs) );
return 0;
#else
[…]
#endif // USE_CRITICAL_SECTION
}
In essence, from time to time the <pd> pointer would be NULL even though
<_prvData> is not, causing a crash when calling EnterCriticalSection(). I
suspect that maybe there a racing condition when creating the internal threads.
Adding if(!pd) return 0; seems to resolve the problem, albeit not a perfect
solution.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thank you!
Cheers,
Guy
