Is there a problem with the worker or is it something wrong with just my bot? 2011-07-19T19:25:21 is the worker on? 2011-07-19T19:26:52 Are you asking me? It *seems* like it is because it's the worker that toggles submissions from 'Uploaded' to 'Compiling and running tests' 2011-07-19T19:27:00 and I'm in the latter status 2011-07-19T19:27:17 Though since I've been there for a few hours perhaps the worker was shut off in the middle of compiling my submission 2011-07-19T19:27:19 see http://aichallengebeta.hypertriangle.com/server_stats.php 2011-07-19T19:27:55 Thanks, didn't know about that. 2011-07-19T19:29:20 That page doesn't tell me anything about worker status. Though the games per minute for the last 5 minutes is 1.6 so it would seem that workers are active. 2011-07-19T19:30:06 I'll try to upload my code again...maybe the worker just died while compiling or testing. 2011-07-19T19:38:37 *** confab has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-19T19:38:41 congratulations, looks like the new scala code/bot manages to crash the sandbox ;) 2011-07-19T19:40:10 it is using the maximum number of processes/threads allowed in a jail during the functional test, which then crashes the sandbox when it tries to sudo to the jailuser and execute the kill command 2011-07-19T19:41:57 *** phreeza has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-19T19:53:26 *** antimatroid has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-19T19:53:37 janzert: Oops! I don't understand why that's happening. It certainly didn't happen when I tested it locally. 2011-07-19T19:54:22 Anything I can do to help? Is it just the Scala compiler that's doing that? I didn't *think* it was multithreaded by default. And there is no threading going on in my bot. 2011-07-19T19:54:37 I would guess you pretty certainly aren't testing in a secure sandbox locally, since it takes quite a convoluted machine setup to do so :/ 2011-07-19T19:55:04 Hmm....so what exactly do you mean by secure sandbox? My workers are running in jails. 2011-07-19T19:55:04 I /fixed/ it temporarily by just upping the process limit again 2011-07-19T19:55:16 working on a real fix now 2011-07-19T19:56:18 the secure sandbox uses chroots and separate jail user accounts to run the programs under 2011-07-19T19:56:41 Yay! My Scala bot is playing! Thanks a lot 2011-07-19T19:56:57 if you're doing a full worker setup then if you select secure jails you probably really are using them 2011-07-19T20:00:50 I selected the option to create bot jails when prompted...yes. The script didn't mention secure jails so I don't know if there's a distinction there. My jails do each have their own user as well. 2011-07-19T20:02:55 ahh, you probably are using secure jails then. you can check that your worker/server_info.py is set to True for secure jails and you should see stuff on the console about changing the owner on the chroot directory when running anything that uses the sandbox 2011-07-19T20:03:51 Yes, secure_jail is true in server_info.py and it does mention chrooting directories when I run a worker. 2011-07-19T20:04:02 However, I'm not using the cron job to start workers...the script didn't seem to install it. 2011-07-19T20:04:04 sounds like you are then 2011-07-19T20:04:11 I am just doing sh start_worker.sh as the contest user. 2011-07-19T20:04:39 that shouldn't make any difference for the sandboxing 2011-07-19T20:05:15 I've run into it before where the JVM used a different number of threads on my machine than the ec2 workers for some reason 2011-07-19T20:07:29 Ah. Strange. So what is using too many threads, scala or scalac? I guess it'd be scala/actually running the bot...since my patch didn't change compilation. 2011-07-19T20:07:39 scala 2011-07-19T20:07:49 it was during the functional test itself 2011-07-19T20:17:35 *** greghaynes has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) 2011-07-19T20:26:55 *** ArchMonkey has quit IRC (Quit: ArchMonkey) 2011-07-19T20:30:13 *** FireFly has quit IRC (Quit: swatted to death) 2011-07-19T20:43:17 *** phreeza has quit IRC (Quit: Computer has gone to sleep) 2011-07-19T21:01:49 *** Kingpin13 has quit IRC (Quit: this used to be the life, but I don't need another one) 2011-07-19T21:18:23 maybe instead of limiting the number of threads we could just penalize bots that are observed to use >100% CPU 2011-07-19T21:26:23 *** ibdknox has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving) 2011-07-19T21:31:51 *** foRei has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 255 seconds) 2011-07-19T22:17:59 *** onensora has quit IRC () 2011-07-19T22:36:17 well, the number of threads(processes) has to be limited at something just so a bot can't fork bomb the worker 2011-07-19T23:12:28 *** jbrechtel has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) 2011-07-19T23:17:23 aichallenge: janzert epsilon * r1ca8026 / (setup/worker_setup.py worker/jailguard.py worker/sandbox.py): Kill secure sandbox processes without needing to create a process in the sandbox - http://bit.ly/rdf1Ef 2011-07-19T23:19:09 *** jmreardon has quit IRC (Quit: jmreardon) 2011-07-19T23:28:37 *** bhasker has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-19T23:31:54 evening 2011-07-19T23:38:40 *** karloski has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-19T23:41:53 *** amstan_ has joined #aichallenge 2011-07-19T23:41:53 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o amstan_ 2011-07-19T23:44:03 *** karloski has quit IRC (Quit: Page closed)
