Java System.loadLibrary call on Linux freezes

I have a very small .so file (Available here: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B4MxFm-ACB3INjhkMjhlNzktYzkxYy00Zjk5LTk0Y2MtZDE2MWQ2MzY1OWUy&hl=en_US&authkey=CMrJguwN)

I am trying to load this into Java on RHEL and the Java main just freezes (No errors or exceptions). I have the directory with the .so file on the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, so I know it's actually trying to load it.

Any ideas how I can troubleshoot this?

public class SmallTester {


    public static void main(String[] args){

        for(String s: System.getenv("LD_LIBRARY_PATH").split(":")){
            System.out.println(s);
        }

        System.loadLibrary("TestAda");

        System.out.println("Here");
    }
}

EDIT:

Based on the post below, I did a strace.. It looks like its repeating this call over and over again (I'm not sure what this means though?):

[pid 31464] clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, {3605675, 624255544}) = 0
[pid 31464] gettimeofday({1306417113, 168967}, NULL) = 0
[pid 31464] clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, {3605675, 624435576}) = 0
[pid 31464] clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, {3605675, 624518205}) = 0
[pid 31464] gettimeofday({1306417113, 169216}, NULL) = 0
[pid 31464] clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME, {1306417113, 169306590}) = 0
[pid 31464] futex(0x88b3f04, FUTEX_WAIT_PRIVATE, 1, {0, 49909410}) = -1 ETIMEDOUT (Connection timed out)

Here is a full version of the log: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B4MxFm-ACB3IYzdhZWIwNWEtYjUzMS00NGM5LWEzZjQtYzMzOWE3MWNhYWQ0&hl=en_US&authkey=CJ-Lv_wG

EDIT2: I tried to load the library with JNA as well:

public class SmallTesterJNA {

    public interface CLibrary extends Library {

      CLibrary INSTANCE1 = (CLibrary)
      Native.loadLibrary("TestAda", //  <<< our library goes here
                         CLibrary.class);

    }

    public static void main(String[] args){

        for(String s: System.getenv("LD_LIBRARY_PATH").split(":")){
            System.out.println(s);
        }

        System.loadLibrary(CLibrary.INSTANCE1.toString());

        System.out.println("Here");
    }
}

Here is the output.. It looks very similar: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B4MxFm-ACB3IYzdhZWIwNWEtYjUzMS00NGM5LWEzZjQtYzMzOWE3MWNhYWQ0&hl=en_US&authkey=CJ-Lv_wG

Edit2:

Here is my gcore output attached to the process.. not sure what this is telling me:

If I had to guess, I'd say that a likely culprit is the shared object's initialization code.

Grab a core dump of your JVM process (using gcore) or attach gdb to get the stack trace of where exactly it's freezing.

---

I usually try strace before gdb (tracing all system calls). Execute:

strace -f java SmallTester > logfile 2>&1

You will get a lot of info in logfile, the last part is the most interesting. You will find the jvm process looking for your TestAda.so file and see if it successfully loaded the .so file. If this doesn't work, revert to gdb.

Have a look at your JNIEXPORT jint JNICALL JNI_OnLoad(JavaVM *vm, void *reserved) function in your C++ code. It might have an infinite loop :) Also try defining this if it isn't defined already.

See here for details about JNI_OnLoad.
