svnadmin dump hangs

From: Dave Rodgman <dave.rodgman_at_arm.com>

Hi,

I'm having issues with svnadmin dump, which occasionally hangs for no
apparent reason. I'm calling it from a post-commit hook for backup
purposes. I've verified that

- repeating the same command by hand completes successfully
- this is not due to disc-space issues
- this is happening fairly often - maybe once a week with around
5000 commits per week
- this is not related to the size of the commit - it's happened with
small and bigish commits

Server is v1.2.0 on fsfs backend. Should I raise a defect?

Suggestions gratefully received

Dave

Some data follows -

a recent occurrence:

hook script does:

svnadmin dump /svn/repositories/devsys/rvct -r 93301 --incremental
--deltas > /tmp/incremental_dump_r93301_d20051102171903000000

which hangs - ps auxf reveals:

httpd 31798 0.0 0.0 5764 1536 ? S Nov02
0:00 /usr/bin/perl /svn/repositories/devsys/rvct/hooks/post-commit /svn/repositories/devsys/rvct 93301
httpd 31802 0.0 0.0 2480 948 ? S Nov02 0:00 \_ sh -c
svnadmin dump /svn/repositories/devsys/rvct -r 93301 --incremental
--deltas > /tmp/incremental_dump_r93301_d2005110217190300httpd 31803
0.0 0.1 7836 3076 ? S Nov02 0:00 \_ svnadmin
dump /svn/repositories/devsys/rvct -r 93301 --incremental --deltas

The dump file is incomplete; repeating the command by hand (which
completes in about 6s) shows that it's about 25% complete.

This process is still running if anyone has any suggestions about how I
might debug it.

output of svnadmin --version:

#svnadmin --version
svnadmin, version 1.2.0 (r14790)

=======================================================

from an older incident, where the commit is small enough to include the
dump file:

ps auxf:

svnadmin dump /svn/repositories/devsys/sourcecontrol -r 1959
--incremental --deltas

but doing e.g. svnadmin dump /svn/repositories/devsys/sourcecontrol -r
1959 --incremental --deltas works fine.

Contents of e.g. /tmp/incremental_dump_r1959_d200506141 are incomplete
(this is not a disc space problem in /tmp, btw):
