If you look back on the worker there's probably some other build on the same worker still technically running that's blocking the rest. It might be old enough to not show on the main summary page, and you won't see if it just looking at a single builder history, so look at the worker in general.
For example, it looks like there's a 3.6 build from 5 days ago, which appears stuck in test_multiprocessing_fork for the past 123 hours. So the later builds are just waiting for the worker to be available. I've seen the rare multiprocessing test hang on some of my slower Windows workers. I think only maybe within the past 5-6 months and probably less than a few times overall. I don't know why the regular test timeouts fail to interrupt things. But if you manually kill the stuck test process on the worker, everything should free up for the rest. Not sure if a master side cancellation works or not. The other cases are appear stuck in builds but in different places. The ARM worker has a 3.x build from 10 days ago stuck in test_pydoc. The other AIX worker is stuck in a checkout step somehow. But in all cases, it's not the waiting builds at issue, but the hung build that blocks the rest. -- David On Sat, Nov 10, 2018 at 10:00 AM Michael <aixto...@felt.demon.nl> wrote: > Just noticed my build-bot (#161) and the other AIX build-bot (#10) are > stuck acquiring locks. > > #161 stuck 5 days (actually, 159, 160, 161, 162 and 163) > > #10 stuck 2 days (9, 10 and 131) - with 9 pinging builder for 9 hours > (builders 4 and 104 are quiet) > > FYI. > > p.s.
