The setting and checking of 'done' contains a rare race where the signal handler setting 'done' is run after checking to break the loop, but before waiting in evlist__poll(). In this case, the main loop won't wake up until either another signal is sent, or the perf data fd causes a wake up. The following simple script can trigger this condition (but you might need to run it for several hours): for ((i = 0; i >= 0; i++)) ; do echo "Loop $i" delay=$(echo "scale=4; 0.1 * $RANDOM/32768" | bc) ./perf record -- sleep 30000000 >/dev/null& pid=$! sleep $delay kill -TERM $pid echo "PID $pid" wait $pid done At some point, the loop will stall. Adding logging, even though perf has received the SIGTERM and set 'done = 1', perf will remain sleeping until a second signal is sent. Committer notes: Make this dependent on HAVE_EVENTFD_SUPPORT, so that we continue building on older systems without the eventfd syscall.
