Hello,

I am experiencing a strange bug in my code that would be long to explain. To resume the context, I have many threads running in parallel, some open-process IO, some tcp-server IO and some termite processes. At some point all the threads become blocked indefinitely and the program sleeps forever.

I stumbled on the following paragraph in the threads section of the Gambit doc:

``A thread is blocked if it is waiting for a mutex to become unlocked, an I/O operation to become possible, the end of a “sleep” period, etc. ''

I think this may lead me to a solution to my bug but I don't clearly understand the statement. Could there be an IO operation that blocks all my threads?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Francois Magnan
