Bug: LOG4J logging does not work correctly on Solaris when the interrupted
flag of the Thread is set
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi,
I have found an issue on Solaris when the interrupted flag of the Java Thread which wants to log something is set:
Under Linux everything works well, but under Solaris, logging output gets corrupted.
On an earlier Log4J version we also had the issue that the interrupted flag got cleared unexpectedly when the Thread was logging something and has been interrupted just before logging.
The test shows that it is not the case now, when the interrupted flag was set before calling the logger, but I haven't tested yet, what happens, when the Thread gets interrupted while it is already executing code from Log4J.
Linux was not affected.
log4j version = 1.2.17
Solaris version = SunOS xsola07 5.10 Generic_147441-12 i86pc i386 i86pc
Solaris 10 10/08 s10x_u6wos_07b X86
The Logger class in this example delegates the logging to LOG4J.
NOTE: In my case the UnitTest succeeds, but logging is corrupted. Please verify the logging output.
public class UnitTest_Logger {
/**
* This test tests the handling of the interrupted flag in Log4J. The interrupted flag should not be modified during
* logging. DEVTS-353: Test if "Failed to flush writer" issue has been fixed: Should fail on Solaris, if the bug has
* not been fixed. Hudson should complain on Solaris while this works under LINUX.
*
* @throws Exception
*/
@Test
public void testLoggingWhenInterrupted()
throws Exception {
boolean failed = false;
final String longString = "...";
int counter = 0;
final Logger myLogger = new Logger( getClass() );
final List<String> logMessageList = new ArrayList<String>();
Thread.interrupted(); // Clear interrupted Flag (if it was set)
for ( int i = 1; i <= 9; i++ ) {
final boolean interrupted = getInterrupted();
failed |= interrupted;
final String logmessage = ++counter + " " + interruptedString( interrupted ) + i + longString;
logMessageList.add( logmessage );
myLogger.logInfo( logmessage );
}
Thread.currentThread().interrupt(); // Set interrupted Flag.
for ( int i = 1; i <= 9; i++ ) {
final boolean interrupted = getInterrupted();
failed |= ( !interrupted );
final String logmessage = ++counter + " " + interruptedString( interrupted ) + i + longString;
logMessageList.add( logmessage );
myLogger.logInfo( logmessage );
}
Thread.interrupted(); // Clear interrupted Flag
for ( int i = 1; i <= 9; i++ ) {
final boolean interrupted = getInterrupted();
failed |= interrupted;
final String logmessage = ++counter + " " + interruptedString( interrupted ) + i + longString;
logMessageList.add( logmessage );
myLogger.logInfo( logmessage );
}
assertFalse( "Interrupted flag has been modified unexpectedly.", failed );
myLogger.logInfo( "These messages should have been logged:" );
for ( final String logMessage : logMessageList ) {
myLogger.logInfo( "" + logMessage );
}
}
private String interruptedString( final boolean interrupted ) {
return interrupted ? "INTERRUPTED" : "NOT interrupted";
}
private boolean getInterrupted() {
return Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted();
}
public static void main( final String[] args ) {
try {
new UnitTest_Logger().testLoggingWhenInterrupted();
} catch ( final Exception e ) {
throw new IllegalStateException( e );
}
}
}
This is the logging output from Solaris: When the Interrupted flag is set, only one line gets logged, the rest is silently dropped.
After clearing the interrupted flag, everything works fine again.
