#1033 closed defect (fixed)

Assertion error when shutting down PJSIP while TCP/TLS connect is in progress and a transaction is waiting (thanks Tamàs Solymosi for the report)

Reported by: bennylp Owned by: bennylp
Priority: normal Milestone: release-1.6
Component: pjsip Version: trunk

Backport to 1.x milestone: Backported:

Description

Assertion in sip_transaction.c when the transaction layer is being unloaded and a transaction is still pending/waiting for transport operation to complete, for example when TCP/TLS transport is connecting to the destination.

Typical stack trace:

Additional info:

This happens because when the transport is being destroyed, it will cancel all pending send operations on this transport instance. This cancellation then reach the transaction instance, which will try to cancel and unregister itself from the transaction layer module. But unfortunately, at this point the transaction layer module had been destroyed beforehand because it has higher priority number than the transport layer module, causing the assertion.

A different but similar stack trace on Linux:

Steps to reproduce this:

  • modify sip_transport_tcp.c:865:
     //status = pj_activesock_start_connect(tcp->asock, tcp->base.pool, rem_addr,
     //				 sizeof(pj_sockaddr_in));
     status = PJ_EPENDING;
    
  • send OPTIONS message to a TCP destination
  • quit pjsua

Initial fix in r3071:

  • added cancellation mechanism, where transaction can ignore the send message completion callback if it has been destroyed

comment:3 Changed 14 years ago by bennylp

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

comment:4 Changed 14 years ago by bennylp

In r3084:

  • fix for r3071: added protection for case when TSX_HAS_PENDING_TRANSPORT flag is set to the transaction but pending_tx is NULL, causing crash

comment:5 Changed 14 years ago by bennylp

  • Resolution fixed deleted
  • Status changed from closed to reopened

Reopened:

It's been reported that r3071 caused transaction to refuse to send ACK

comment:6 Changed 14 years ago by bennylp

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from reopened to closed

In r3090:

  • Fixed the problem above that caused ACK not to be sent. This happened when TCP switching is used, and the TCP fails to send the request.

In r3114:

  • Fixed send_msg_callback of transaction.c to reset 'cont' flag to stop (re)transmitting when transaction has been unregistered.
