Runaway CPU investigation for java: futex lock contention at libjvm.so [.] void OopOopIterateDispatch<G1MarkAndPushClosure>::Table::…

java is stuck in a likely futex lock contention loop: 11.06% of sampled CPU passed through libjvm.so [.] void OopOopIterateDispatch<G1MarkAndPushClosure..., with repeated thread backtraces show 10 thread(s) around 0x00007fae649049ee in futex_fatal_error () from target:<path> and 6 thread(s) around 0x00007fae649049ee in futex_fatal_error () from target:<path>.

Technical snapshot

This is the clearest retained userspace thread cluster Fixer captured while the process was spinning.

  • Why Fixer classified it this way: Multiple captured threads converge on futex or pthread mutex paths, which suggests user-space lock contention or a lock convoy.
  • Thread summary: thread backtraces show 10 thread(s) around 0x00007fae649049ee in futex_fatal_error () from target:<path> and 6 thread(s) around 0x00007fae649049ee in futex_fatal_error () from target:<path>
  • Contention signals: futex-lock-contention, allocator-contention, gdb-stderr: gdb: warning: Couldn't determine a path for the index cache directory. warning: Target and debugger are in different PID namespaces; thread lists and other data are likely unreliable. Connect to gdbserver inside the container. warning: Expected absolute pathname for libpthread in the inferior, but got target:<path> warning: Unable to find libthread_db matching inferior's thread library, thread debugging will not be available.

Possible duplicates

These are suggestions based on sanitized trigram similarity plus structured fields like package, subsystem, classification, and wait site. They are not auto-merged.

java is stuck in a likely futex lock contention loop: 9.37% of sampled CPU passed through libjvm.so [.] void OopOopIterateDispatch<G1CMOopClosure>::Tab..., with repeated thread backtraces show 10 thread(s) around 0x00007f11a21bb9ee in futex_fatal_error () from target:<path> and 5 thread(s) around 0x00007f11a21bb9ee in futex_fatal_error () from target:<path>.

Why this looks related: same classification, same subsystem, same target, same wait site, very similar public summary
