Job stuck in futex_waiting_me waiting channel

Question

[jaspreetk.dhanjal]

Hi,

I am running a few scripts which involve a large amount of data. During the run process the RAM (128 GB) and swap gets full. The job gets stuck. Under the Processes in System monitor I see futex_waiting_me under the Waiting channel. Is it possible to resume this job?

Thanks!

It's likely that some thread crashed, since it's waiting on a lock. Kill it and rerun it.
