The test from the bug report does not use timer.stop(). Is it possible to write a test with timer.start()/stop() to reproduce the original issue?

 Thanks,
 Alexandr.

Alexander,

Thank you for the contribution. The final update:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ssadetsky/8130735/webrev.02/

It looks like the runningTimer is never null so delayedTimer == runningTimer check always includes the delayedTimer to null check.

  Thanks,
  Alexandr.

In the run() the delayed timer is obtained from timer, so it is always the resulting delayed timer.
Just to use the delayed timer from the queue and not from the timer?

TimerQueue.run(){
DelayedTimer delayedTimer = queue.take(); // note that this delayed timer is not the same as timer.delayedTimer
    delayedTimer.getTimer().lock();
    if(delayedTimer.removed){
        // skip it
    }
    // ...
    delayedTimer.getTimer().unlock();
}

How do you propose to detect that timer was renewed exactly during the time interval between the timer is taken from the queue and the lock is captured in the run() thread?

Hi Alexander,

The remove() method set delayedTimer field to null, and it is checked in run() to be not null. So it acts in the same way as flag you've proposed.

The issue is about how to detect consequent remove() ans add() in run(). If you use some flag in remove() then you need to clear it in add()
I suppose that you are talking about some flags in Timer. The proposed change suggests to add the flag to the DelayedTimer. So after stopping a timer (timer.delayedTimer = null) the delayedTimer taken from the queue contains information that it has been removed.

  Thanks,
  Alexandr.

because after the add() the timer should run normally with the new period. And you cannot clear such flag in the first consequent run() after add() because you cannot determine the moment the add() was called. So it is just the same problem.

  What about to add removed flat to DelayedTimer? Something like:
  TimerQueue.removeTimer(Timer timer){
    timer.lock();
    // ...
    timer.delayedTimer.removed = true;
    queue.remove(timer.delayedTimer);
    timer.delayedTimer = null;
    timer.unlock();
}

TimerQueue.run(){
    DelayedTimer delayedTimer = queue.take();
    delayedTimer.getTimer().lock();
    if(delayedTimer.removed){
        // skip it
    }
    // ...
    delayedTimer.getTimer().unlock();
}

Hi, Semyon.
I see that the chance to reproduce the problem is very very small, because we should call addTimer, when we are at lines 171/172. So the bug is about really small timings. So the related question: Is it possible in the fixed version to call addTimer when we remove DelayedTimer from the queue via queue.take(), but before we assign its value to the runningTimer?

Hello Semyon,

the fix looks good to me.

P.S. Just a side note, as I can see we could possibly start two threads instead of one in startIfNeeded():

  96     void startIfNeeded() {
  97         if (! running) {
  98             runningLock.lock();
  99             try {
100 final ThreadGroup threadGroup = AppContext.getAppContext().getThreadGroup(); 101 AccessController.doPrivileged((PrivilegedAction<Object>) () -> {
 102                     String name = "TimerQueue";
103 Thread timerThread = new ManagedLocalsThread(threadGroup,
 104 this, name);

!running check is missing after try. It is not the case with current code base, but it may be changed in future.

Thanks,

Alexander.

Hello,

Please review fix for JDK9:

bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8130735
webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ssadetsky/8130735/webrev.00/

The root cause is the setting larger expiration time for the timer which is already inserted into the delay queue. So all timers behind the timer cannot be executed earlier than its expiration time. This happens very rare only for repeated timers and only if user uses the Swing timer API inaccurately (call start() without stop()). The fix eliminates this possibility by introducing a check if the timer was already restarted concurrently. It is difficult to write test because I could not reliably reproduce the issue for a reasonable time.
