Stopping the instance apparently killed the process, so I started the instance again.

I restarted all affected jobs

There was another occurrence of this today on worker39 reported by Martin via slack. The test failed similar to the previous report:

There are some more details in the slack thread but I didn't follow closely and don't completely understand what the "cause" of this was.

As @tinita suggested to find the job that actually started the leftover qemu process.
I found that on worker39:13, the job https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16150344/ was cancelled and after looking at the logs https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16150344/logfile?filename=autoinst-log.txt#line-8085 found that QEMU didn't get signal 15 from isotovideo.
So, this was the first job on worker39:13 which didn't close the QEMU session gracefully and caused "Address Already in Use" error on further retries.

• https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16150572#line-217
• https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16150578#line-158
• https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16150595#line-175
• https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16150618#line-151

Marius mentioned that we already have an open ticket for the scenario when QEMU sometimes doesn't exit gracefully.
Maybe this is also related: #136238

I found that both processes causing the hanging qemu process have this in common, with a tiny difference:
https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16150344/logfile?filename=autoinst-log.txt#line-8091

Fatal glibc error: malloc.c:4189 (_int_malloc): assertion failed: chunk_main_arena (fwd)

https://openqa.suse.de/tests/15995445/logfile?filename=autoinst-log.txt#line-5639

Fatal glibc error: malloc.c:4172 (_int_malloc): assertion failed: chunk_main_arena (bck->bk)    

In both cases we have ::: backend::driver::_collect_orphan: Driver backend collected unknown process after that, but that can't be the qemu process, because we know it was still running, causing the actual problem.

this time we have something on openqaworker18. The last good job was:

• https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16218776
• https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16219186 <- first incomplete but without a "Failed to find an available port"-message
• https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16219574 <- first incomplete with this message

what I noticed while trying to understand why 16219186 in-completed:

[2024-12-17T19:00:35.155667Z] [info] [pid:38979] Preparing cgroup to start isotovideo

but not sure if related or not.

Another broken instance on worker18: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16236652 - I might reboot worker18 if nobody wants to look into it right now (asked in slack)

To search for recent failures like this you can use:

select concat('https://openqa.suse.de/t', id), id, assigned_worker_id, t_started, state, result, test, reason from jobs where reason = 'backend died: QEMU exited unexpectedly, see log for details' order by t_started desc limit 20;

It can theoretically be a different error, so the log still needs to be checked.

And we should kill the qemu process on that worker, so that the next job on this worker instance won't run into the same issue.

We saw this again on multiple slots. Example: https://openqa.suse.de/admin/workers/3377

Notes from my investigation:

Normally the worker slot should at least show up as broken but here it doesn't (it is idling).

systemctl shows the leftover process quite clearly:

The leftover process can just be terminated, e.g. sudo kill 69998.

This needs to be fixed in RWP (unless we want to inherit from its package and reimplement is_running and stop on our side): https://github.com/openSUSE/Mojo-IOLoop-ReadWriteProcess/pull/61

I also came up with a small improvement for openQA: https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/pull/6110

We had to revert changes due to a race condition.

This change will fix it: https://github.com/openSUSE/Mojo-IOLoop-ReadWriteProcess/pull/62

I'll continue deploying it later but only on a single worker.

I'll also try to improve tests in Mojo-RWP.

This is also a bit problematic when it comes to stopping the process. That means if we call stop before setpgrp(0, 0) runs (or setpgrp(0, 0) does not run after all for some reason) the process cannot be stopped. We always had this problem (also before my recent changes) so supposedly it doesn't really matter in practice. However, here's a daft for how fixing this: https://github.com/openSUSE/Mojo-IOLoop-ReadWriteProcess/pull/64

A version of RWP I will deploy tomorrow on a single production test host to see whether my latest changed work in production: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:mkittler:branches:devel:languages:perl/perl-Mojo-IOLoop-ReadWriteProcess

As mentioned on Slack:

I now deployed a fixed version of the change on openqaworker14.qa.suse.cz because that was one of the previously affected machines. If you see any issues, simply disable the repository home_mkittler_test_poo170209 I added there and install the regular version of RWP again via zypper in --allow-vendor-change perl-Mojo-IOLoop-ReadWriteProcess. (Of course I'll handle that, just in case I'm not around.)

So far the situation looks good on openqaworker14:

openqa=> select id, t_finished, result, reason from jobs where (select host from workers where id = assigned_worker_id) = 'openqaworker14' and result = 'incomplete' and t_finished >= '2025-01-16T12:00:00' order by t_finished;
    id    |     t_finished      |   result   |                           reason

These incompletes were caused by a leftover process on slot 14 which I have cleaned up only now. The leftover was from https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16472470 which ran 12 hours ago which was before I deployed my changes.

That means there were so far no relevant leftover processes and also no regressions. (I also checked failed jobs but also couldn't find any relevant jobs.)

I can hit the issue again, https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16486907

Can you please help double check?

This slot looks fine. I assume you have already killed the leftover process yourself then.

I ran the query from yesterday again to check on openqaworker14 and it looks good. So I'm going to deploy my change everywhere again.

Considering there are other problems with OSD right now we decided to deploy the fix everywhere only next week.

Until then, here's how you can workaround it:

Check whether there's a leftover process:
