If it's anything like bug 711322, then the --load-average option might cause it to un-hang itself (it has a 30 second time that will wake it up). In cases like this it's also possible to send the main emerge process a SIGUSR1 signal in order to get a pdb prompt, then move up the stack to the scope of the Scheduler class and call self._schedule() to un-hang it. I am already using --load-average, so the hang happens with or without it. Here is a stack trace from pdb in any case: >>> Completed installing dev-db/sqlite-3.31.1 into /tmp/portage/dev-db/sqlite-3.31.1/image * Final size of build directory: 28960 KiB (28.2 MiB) * Final size of installed tree: 2340 KiB ( 2.2 MiB) --Return-- > /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.8/emerge(30)debug_signal()->None -> pdb.set_trace() (Pdb) bt /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.8/emerge(53)<module>() -> retval = emerge_main() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/main.py(1309)emerge_main() -> return run_action(emerge_config) /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/actions.py(3374)run_action() -> retval = action_build(emerge_config, spinner=spinner) /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/actions.py(564)action_build() -> retval = mergetask.merge() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/Scheduler.py(1020)merge() -> rval = self._merge() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/Scheduler.py(1414)_merge() -> self._main_loop() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/Scheduler.py(1390)_main_loop() -> self._event_loop.run_until_complete(self._main_exit) /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/portage/util/_eventloop/asyncio_event_loop.py(127)_run_until_complete() -> return self._loop.run_until_complete(future) /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/asyncio/base_events.py(603)run_until_complete() -> self.run_forever() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/asyncio/base_events.py(570)run_forever() -> self._run_once() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/asyncio/base_events.py(1823)_run_once() -> event_list = self._selector.select(timeout) /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/selectors.py(468)select() -> fd_event_list = self._selector.poll(timeout, max_ev) > /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.8/emerge(30)debug_signal()->None -> pdb.set_trace() for portage-3.2.84, the stack trace is --Return-- > /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.8/emerge(30)debug_signal()->None -> pdb.set_trace() (Pdb) (Pdb) bt /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.8/emerge(53)<module>() -> retval = emerge_main() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/main.py(1309)emerge_main() -> return run_action(emerge_config) /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/actions.py(3358)run_action() -> retval = action_build(emerge_config, spinner=spinner) /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/actions.py(563)action_build() -> retval = mergetask.merge() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/Scheduler.py(1020)merge() -> rval = self._merge() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/Scheduler.py(1414)_merge() -> self._main_loop() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/_emerge/Scheduler.py(1390)_main_loop() -> self._event_loop.run_until_complete(self._main_exit) /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/portage/util/_eventloop/asyncio_event_loop.py(140)_run_until_complete() -> return self._loop.run_until_complete(future) /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/asyncio/base_events.py(603)run_until_complete() -> self.run_forever() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/asyncio/base_events.py(570)run_forever() -> self._run_once() /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/asyncio/base_events.py(1823)_run_once() -> event_list = self._selector.select(timeout) /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/selectors.py(468)select() -> fd_event_list = self._selector.poll(timeout, max_ev) > /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.8/emerge(30)debug_signal()->None -> pdb.set_trace() (Pdb) I didn't manage to unhang portage-2.3.93 by calling self._schedule() either.

Even calling just ebuild portage-2.3.93.ebuild install already causes the hang for me. All versions of portage currently in the tree show this behavior, so I wonder if the machine I'm running this on is not the problem... Typically this type of hang indicates that the stdout/stderr file descriptors of the ebuild process have not reached EOF, which can be due to some process running in the background which has inherited these file descriptors.
Does this issue affect all ebuilds? Do you have anything in a bashrc like ${EPREFIX}/etc/portage/bashrc or in ${EPREFIX}/etc/portage/env/* that might leave a process running in the background? Can you see any processes running in the background, using tools like ps? Typically I would use a command like `ps axf` to view the process tree, but it's possible that the process would be a child of pid 1 if it has daemonized itself.
Over the years we have come up with 3 mechanisms to combat this kind issue:
1) The sys-apps/portage ebuilds have an ipc USE flag which enables an ipc call for the ebuild to indicate when a given phase has completed. The ipc USE flag is sometimes disabled for prefix installations, so you might try enabling it if possible.
2) FEATURES=cgroup (I wouldn't recommend this one since it's not really maintained and could have various issues like for example it is incompatible with systemd)
3) FEATURES=pid-sandbox (requires root privileges)
This is what I have in FEATURES: gentoo ~ $ portageq envvar FEATURES assume-digests binpkg-docompress binpkg-dostrip binpkg-logs config-protect-if-modified distlocks ebuild-locks fixlafiles force-prefix ipc-sandbox merge-sync multilib-strict network-sandbox parallel-fetch pid-sandbox preserve-libs protect-owned sfperms strict unknown-features-warn unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans unprivileged And how portage is configured: gentoo ~ $ emerge -pv1 --nodeps portage These are the packages that would be merged, in order: [ebuild U ] sys-apps/portage-2.3.94::gentoo [2.3.84-r1::gentoo] USE="(ipc) -apidoc% -build -doc -gentoo-dev (-native-extensions) -rsync-verify (-selinux) -xattr (-epydoc%)" PYTHON_TARGETS="python3_6 python3_7 python3_8 -pypy3 -python2_7" 0 KiB I rebooted the machine, and no suspicious process is running. At the point ebuild gets stuck, I see this process tree: 2720 pts/0 Ss 0:00 | \_ -bash 2767 pts/0 S 0:00 | \_ /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/bin/bash /home/jenkins/bin/gentoo 2768 pts/0 S 0:00 | \_ /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/bin/bash -l 2839 pts/0 S+ 0:01 | \_ /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/usr/bin/python3.6 -b /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gento 7577 pts/0 S+ 0:00 | \_ /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/bin/bash /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/ 9317 pts/0 S+ 0:00 | \_ /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/linux/x86_64/bin/bash /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/li 9332 pts/0 S+ 0:00 | \_ mkfifo -m 600 /tmp/portage/sys-apps/portage-2.3.94/temp/multijob.CuM3SW So, it seems that mkfifo might be involved. This is prefix, so I cannot try things that need root privileges. If I ctrl-C then to ebuild ... install again, then it thinks installation finished. After that, I can use ebuild ... qmerge to finish installing the package. I still don't know how this started to happen. The issue affects all ebuilds. Killing the mkfifo points to portage getting stuck here: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/portage.git/tree/bin/helper-functions.sh#n25 So, turns out that it's mkfifo that hangs on a call to open(..., O_RDONLY):

Portage now works fine after the downgrade.
In case anyone had the same problem, here is how I managed to fix it (on a gentoo-prefix).
1. Make a backup of your ${EPREFIX}/bin/mkfifo
2. Make a symbolic link of the mkfifo file in the host (typically at /usr/bin/mkfifo or /bin/mkfifo) to ${EPREFIX}/bin/mkfifo
3. Downgrade coreutils with emerge -v1 '=sys-apps/coreutils-8.30*'
4. Re-install coreutils with emerge sys-apps/coreutils
I am not sure if step 3 is necessary.
Getting this in a non-prefix install. ...and rebuilding coreutils fixed it for me too. *shrug* (In reply to Luke-Jr from comment #10) > ...and rebuilding coreutils fixed it for me too. *shrug* Sigh, spoke too soon. Only reproduces with the -m option Looks like 8.31 is using native lchmod, while 8.32 is using a (broken) substitute for some reason. (In reply to Luke-Jr from comment #11) > Looks like 8.31 is using native lchmod, while 8.32 is using a (broken) substitute for some reason. Do you see this in the configure output? checking for lchmod... yes If not, it is probably using an implementation from gnulib as a fallback.

No, both 8.31 and 8.32 have "no" here. It does look like lchmod is coming from gnulib. In 8.31, it appears that it is #define'd to normal chmod... Created attachment 670109 [details]

Created attachment 617966 [details] emerge --info I have a prefix where portage hangs on pkg_postinst(). Happens with a few of the latest versions as of recently. Could be due to an old kernel, as this is with kernel 2.6.32-754.27.1.el6.x86_64 from Scientific Linux 6.
