 Deadlock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Deadlock is a common problem in multiprocessing where many processes share a specific type of mutually exclusive resource known as a software, or soft, lock.
One known algorithm that is used for deadlock avoidance is the Banker's algorithm, which requires resource usage limit to be known in advance.

 Distributed Deadlock Detection
Deadlock Detection in Distributed Databases, ACM Computing Surveys, 19(4), 303-328, December 1987.
One way to detect deadlocks in distributed systems is for each site to construct a local WFG on the part it knows about.
In deadlock avoidance the system considers resource requests while the processes are running and takes action to insure that those requests do not lead to deadlock.

 CIS 307: Deadlocks
Deadlock Detection, in the case where it is available information about the full resource allocation graph, it is easy since there is deadlock if and only if there is a loop in the resource allocation graph.
Deadlock avoidance is essentially not used in distributed systems.
There is a deadlock in a system if and only if there is a loop in the wait-for graph of that system.

 Deadlock
Deadlock avoidance refers to a strategy where whenever a resource is requested, it is only granted if it cannot result in deadlock.
Deadlock is a terrific theoretical problem for graduate students, but none of the solutions discussed above can be implemented in a real world, general purpose operating system.
For example, many database operations involve locking several records, and this can result in deadlock, so database software often has a deadlock prevention algorithm.

 Deadlock Detection
Deadlock Detection monitors the driver's use of resources which need to be locked — spin locks, mutexes, and fast mutexes.
There is a detailed example of the !deadlock extension, as well as general information about debugger extensions, in the documentation in the Debugging Tools for Windows package.
These deadlocks require a certain degree of "bad luck" since they rely on a number of things happening simultaneously.

 SQL Server technical bulletin - How to resolve a deadlock
When a lock manager’s deadlock detection algorithm detects a deadlock, the lock manager chooses one of the SPIDs as a victim.
This is only one example of a deadlock case that involves locks.
The -T1205 startup parameter collects information every time that the deadlock algorithm checks for a deadlock, not when a deadlock is encountered.

 Extending Java to Support Shared Resource Protection and Deadlock Detection in Threads Programming
The additional time for the Deadlock Detection is due to the algorithm involved in the DeadlockDetection class.
In a system where deadlock is a potential problem, this view can show where a deadlock situation is occurring.
If an error occurs due to corrupted data or a deadlock of the resources, an exception is thrown for the Application to deal with or to allow the program to close without corrupting the data.

 Citations: Graph-theoretic deadlock detection and resolution for flexible manufacturing systems - Cho, Kumaran, Wysk ...
Here, the authors suggest that a deadlock detection algorithm, presented in [67] be applied to the state that results if a considered request is granted.
The computation per iteration is in O(mn) where n is the number of nodes and m is the number of arcs of the network.
However, as it will become clear in the ensuing sections of this chapter, the most severe problem in designing practical solutions to the FMS deadlock, is the lack of a parsimonious representation of the states to be forbidden.

 Berkeley DB Reference Guide: Deadlock detection
When a deadlock exists in the system, all the threads of control involved in the deadlock are, by definition, waiting on a lock.
More precisely, the deadlock detector reads through the lock table, and reviews each lock object currently locked.
Each object has lockers that currently hold locks on the object and possibly a list of lockers waiting for a lock on the object.

 Potential Deadlock
The problem, as you might guess, was a deadlock in the window system.
Instead of deterministically generating an immediate error (and thus letting the implementor know that his code may deadlock), it would only fail under conditions of high load or bad luck.
Allowing the program to proceed masks the error making it less likely that it will be discovered and fixed early on, and making it more likely that the program will deadlock under high load.

 CITIDEL: Viewing 'Local distributed deadlock detection by knot detection'
Using the knot detection algorithm as a building block, a deadlock detection algorithm in a dynamic environment is developed.
The algorithm is triggered only when there is a potential for deadlock and only those nodes which are potentially deadlocked perform the algorithm.

I should have realised you were quoting data object ids when you were in the 200,000 range, rather than the logical object ids in the trace file.
One of the session (323 from the trace) is waiting on for a shared lock on this table.
The critical part is that we need to reproduce this and come up with a solution (changes to code) for the developers.

 Berkeley DB Reference Guide: Deadlock detection
Alternatively, applications can create their own deadlock utility or thread using the underlying DB_ENV->lock_detect function, or specify that Berkeley DB run the deadlock detector internally whenever there is a conflict over a lock (see DB_ENV->set_lk_detect for more information).
If deadlock has occurred, a victim must be selected, and that victim will then return the error DB_LOCK_DEADLOCK from whatever Berkeley DB call it was making.
Transaction A cannot make forward progress until Transaction B releases its read lock on X, but Transaction B cannot make forward progress until Transaction A releases its read lock on X. In order to detect that deadlock has happened, a separate process or thread must review the locks currently held in the database.

 How can I avoiding deadlock? - dBforums
A deadlock (as described by ARWinner) would theoretically NEVER be resolved except when the database manager detects the probable deadlock, and then cancels one of the processes.
An ordinary timeout due contention can occur when a process is waiting for a lock to be released by another process, but the defined wait period has been exceeded, and the process is then cancelled.
The index locking situation has been improved with type 2 indexes, but old type 1 indexes must be explicitly converted on indexes previously created before version 8.

 The Old Joel on Software Forum - Deadlock
A project I worked on followed this method and found several surprising potential deadlocks which we then fixed.
Also, before acquiring a lock, I checked to see whether the lock was already acquired by a thread which was blocked on a lock owned by this thread: and if so, I threw an exception (deadlock detection and recovery).
This approach will only make the deadlock less probable (and harder to find).

 [E-Lang] Deadlock-free [was what is good about E?]
One of the threads is holding on to the lock around data A, while waiting for the lock around data B to become available.
Another thread is holding on to the lock around data B, while waiting for the lock around data A to become available.
Okay, so two threads are now permanently stopped, which is bad, but worse is that they will never release the locks around A and B. Thus *any* other thread that comes along and waits for either A *or* B will also become permanently stopped, adding any locks that it was holding to the "deadlock pileup".

 Define deadlock - a definition from Whatis.com
A deadlock is a situation in which two computer programs sharing the same resource are effectively preventing each other from accessing the resource, resulting in both programs ceasing to function.
The earliest computer operating systems ran only one program at a time.
This led to the problem of the deadlock.

 MySQL Bugs: #8325: Deadlock in replication thread stops replication
May be possible to design queries to increase likelihood of a deadlock in the replication thread by running many insert/updates on master and complex, long-running selects on slave (the instance it occurred in for me most recently involved a select currently holding >50 locks and a rapidly updating/inserting master across the same tables).
In that case, I would much prefer the replication transaction be chosen as the victim, and then retried automatically (via a SLAVE START) than have to redo the expensive read queries.
Chris, I had already decided to change 4.1.10 or 4.1.11 so that the replication thread is never chosen as the deadlock victim, and also, that the lock wait timeout is raised for the replication thread.

 Parallel Deadlock
Notice how C's final blocking receive would be matched by a send on I if both instructions were executed.
However, it never gets executed because it is stuck in the blocking send to P (that has no matching receive on P), therefore causing deadlock on I. Miguel A. Revilla
A common problem in parallel computing is establishing proper communication patterns so that processors do not deadlock while either waiting to receive messages from other processors, or waiting for the sending of messages to other processors to complete.

A common example is a program waiting for output from a server while the server is waiting for more input from the controlling program before outputting anything.
It is reported that this particular flavour of deadlock is sometimes called a "starvation deadlock", though the term "starvation" is more properly used for situations where a program can never run simply because it never gets high enough priority.
