Zuul-cloner failing to acquire .git lock sometimes

I cleaned up the same error for a different repo on the same host previously: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Release_Engineering%2FSAL&diff=140645&oldid=140607

This feels like a race of some sort where multiple jobs are using the same working copy but it may just be an intermittent failure of zuul.Cloner of some sort. It seems that once a repo becomes corrupted like this it must be manually deleted before the job will succeed on that Jenkins slave again.

Ori proposed a patch upstream https://review.openstack.org/#/c/147101/1/ which properly release the lock after the config has been written.

I have deployed Ori patch on all labs slaves as well as the two production slaves. Should hopefully fix the issue.

Lets keep this Task open until upstream has reviewed and merged the Ori patch.

Thank you Ori!

this is annoying, and together with T88554 it is hard to get a verified+2 in gerrit even when rechecking.
Apparently for the last failing builds on mediawiki-extensions-zend it was always the flow repo (Flow/.git/config.lock).

The root cause is most probably some git operation being interrupted abruptly. When one quickly send two patchsets, Zuul will abort the job for the first patch set and Jenkins kill all running process attached to the job. That leaves the git workspace in a dirty state (lock file is still around).

A possible fix would be to have zuul-cloner clean up lock files before proceeding.

GitPython has a LockFile class in git/util.py which has a _release_lock() method. We can get Zuul Merger.Merger._ensure_cloned() to invoke it.

Krinkle moved this task from Next to Untriaged on the Continuous-Integration-Infrastructure board.

Lowering priority. It doesn't happen very often and will be obsolete if we use clean workspaces and/or isolated VMs.

Krinkle moved this task from Enhancements to Bugs on the Zuul board.

Still happens. E.g. on https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/job/mediawiki-extensions-zend/12810/console just now

I left a comment on our upstream patch: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/147101/

The patch at https://review.openstack.org/#/c/147101/ handle the config.lock case. It would not release other locks that might be caused when Zuul abruptly cancel jobs during a git operation.

A poor man solution would be to find and delete such lock files before invoking zuul-cloner. Something like:

echo "Deleting leftover git lock files"
find src/ -path '**/.git/*.lock' -delete

Have to be tested though then we can inject it in JJB config before any invocation of zuul-cloner until its handled by zuul-cloner itself.

The patch at https://review.openstack.org/#/c/147101/ handle the config.lock case. It would not release other locks that might be caused when Zuul abruptly cancel jobs during a git operation.

The stack trace in the comment before this clearly shows config_writer. There are also other possible locks inside .git. But it seems even the config lock is not handled correctly by that patch.

This keeps happening at random when the Zuul scheduler cancels builds and leaves behind corrupt workspaces. Subsequently this routinely cause all builds to keep failing until someone logs on the slave over SSH and restores the git clone.

This is unacceptable. We need to either fix the locks, or clean our workspaces (T76304; depends on having git-cache, T87294).

To fix the locks we would:

  • Make Zuul-cloner remove locks,
  • .. or; Remove them ahead of time,
  • .. or make Zuul-cloner more resilient and falback to re-cloning if updating fails.

Are the developers of zuul out of their minds? It seems crazy to me that it would abruptly just kill a job and expect the workspace to be usable afterwards.

Are the developers of zuul out of their minds? It seems crazy to me that it would abruptly just kill a job and expect the workspace to be usable afterwards.

It doesn't. We're crazy for not wiping workspaces at the start or end of each build. Developers of Zuul (OpenStack infra) do not preserve workspaces ever. We do this because we don't have a git cache and without git cache, preserving workspaces (or rather, just the .git) is the simplest way to not have to re-clone big repositories every time (which would slow down every mediawiki related job by 5 minutes).

We're working on this, see T96627 and associated tasks.

Still happening.

Not sure if that's the same problem or T126699 but the main error seems zuul-related.

Krinkle renamed this task from Zuul-cloner failing to acquire .git/config lock sometimes to Zuul-cloner failing to acquire .git lock sometimes.Jun 4 2016, 12:10 AM

I belive this is fixed in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/rCIZU0a6a0c422cdffe668bec2a9420d9bdd32182a0d8

Since it now also checks for .git.

That commit relates to the git cache (source), which is not enabled by default. This bug is about the git status inside the Jenkins job workspace (destination).

e489cf2a1a97870c55abd4279a9bd8eeac0cb8b7 is the Zuul merger it deals with the file lock sticking when modifying the git configuration for the repo. That patch has been included in Zuul ages ago.

This task is about zuul-cloner (not zuul-merger) which can be abruptly aborted and leave lock file behind. The next run on that job/slave would then choke due to the leftover lock file.

A way to fix it would be to have zuul-cloner discard the lock files entirely. A future fix would be to always start with a clean environment.

Oh, @hashar would you know how to implement the fix please?

Krinkle claimed this task.

Not seen in a while. Let's close this.

mmodell changed the subtype of this task from "Task" to "Production Error".Aug 28 2019, 11:12 PM
