Public bug reported: Since upgrading to Ubuntu 15.10 from Ubuntu 15.04, the various GUI applications that I run, including Netbeans and Minecraft have been suffering from dead/waitlocks which prevent them from operating properly. Since I have reproduced this issue these two completely different codebases, I am moving the bug further upstream.
The original Netbeans bug report can be viewed here: https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=256124 Essentially, during routine interaction and calling of various AWT methods, somewhere between 8u45 (15.04) and 8u66 (15.10), something broke causing the application to hang intermittently when these methods are called. Some sample jstack traces are attached, the issue should be fairly obvious to spot. ** Affects: openjdk-8 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "minecraft.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1510009/+attachment/4505381/+files/minecraft.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1510009 Title: Java 1.8.0_66 is extremely deadlock prone regarding AWT/GTK interaction To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-8/+bug/1510009/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
