Pipeline freezing/hanging in "live source waiting for running state"

[GStreamer-devel mailing list]

Hello!

We are writing a library that uses Gstreamer for a client

Our client wrote a test program to stress our library, and a bug was found,
which I am able to reproduce

The test program uses signal handlers to kill and restart the pipeline many
times in a loop

This works fine for a while, but at some point, after the pipeline is
killed, when the test program tries to start it again, it freezes. I've
enabled GST logs and I can see that the last message that is printed is:

*DEBUG basesrc gstbasesrc.c:513:gst_base_src_wait_playing_unlocked:<mysrc>
live source waiting for running state*

And by looking at the gstreamer source code this is a called in a function
that is indeed blocking until the state changes to PLAYING
(gst_base_src_wait_playing, on line 549 of
https://github.com/GStreamer/gstreamer/blob/master/libs/gst/base/gstbasesrc.c
<https://github.com/GStreamer/gstreamer/blob/master/libs/gst/base/gstbasesrc.c>
)

Does anyone have any ideia on what could be causing this?

I've quadruple checked the library code and there's nothing in it that could
hang. Also I was able to tell from the logs that this hanging happens
outside of any function in our library, so it happens sometime in between
calls to any code that is in our library

A snippet of the log with prints the "live source waiting for running state"
a couple times:
