ADFA-5375: Stop the debugger owning OS threads

Each DebuggerViewModel built coroutine contexts that own OS threads and closed neither, so every destroyed editor activity leaked its threads. Measured on device: seven open/close cycles left seven live BreakpointHandler threads, one per destroyed activity. LeakCanary saw nothing - it watches objects, not threads.

The first cut of this made the owners AutoCloseable. Review pushed back with a better answer: the whole bug class disappears if these classes never own a thread. Dispatchers.IO.limitedParallelism gives the same parallelism bound and sequential confinement, owns nothing, and leaves no close() for a future owner to forget.

What changed

All four owners the sibling sweep found:

Owner Was Now
IDEDebugClientImpl newFixedThreadPoolContext(4, "IDEDebugClient") limitedParallelism(4)
BreakpointHandler newSingleThreadContext limitedParallelism(1)
MemoryUsageWatcher newSingleThreadContext limitedParallelism(1) - closes ADFA-5396
EventHandler (JDWP) newSingleThreadContext limitedParallelism(1) - closes ADFA-5397

CodeEditorView keeps its own; it closes correctly. TsAnalyzeWorker also keeps its own, but it does not close correctly - stop() closes the dispatcher before cancelling the job, so the analyzer is rerouted to Dispatchers.IO and keeps running while document.close() frees the native tree-sitter objects under it. That is a use-after-free, not a leak, and it crashed the process during device testing of this PR. Filed as ADFA-5401; deliberately not fixed here, since it is a different module and wants its own verification. An earlier revision of this description claimed both files were fine - that was wrong.

DebuggerViewModel.onCleared() closes the client, which cancels clientScope and detaches from EventBus - the client registered itself in init and never left.

Bugs the review caught in the first approach

All were introduced by cancelling the handler's scope, and all are fixed here:

  • A breakpoint added just before closing the editor was silently lost. Cancelling the scope also cancelled the 1s debounced save. Persistence now runs on a scope close() does not cancel, and close() flushes a pending save rather than waiting out the delay.
  • Queued edits were dropped: close() cancelled the consumer before closing the channel. It now closes the channel and lets the consumer drain - the scope owns no thread, so an idle scope costs nothing.
  • toggle()/change() could kill the app. They used Channel.send, which throws ClosedSendChannelException on a closed handler into a scope with no exception handler, and IDEApplication's uncaught handler calls exitProcess. They now trySend and log, and both scopes got a CoroutineExceptionHandler. This reproduced as a dead Gradle test worker before the fix.
  • onAttach/onDisconnect run on the JDWP listener thread, which cancelling clientScope does not stop. Every entry point now returns early once closed. (The previous PR body claimed cancelling the scope stopped these; it did not, and that claim is withdrawn.)
  • close() drops the debug highlight before clearing listeners; fields written across threads are @Volatile.

Testing

  • DebuggerThreadLeakTest rewritten. Thread names are gone, so it asserts a second batch of seven view-model lifecycles adds no threads over the first. Verified it fails with a thread-owning dispatcher restored (30 against a 25 ceiling). The save test fails without the flush (1014ms against a 500ms bound).
  • The tests now use a TemporaryFolder project dir - the earlier version wrote an untracked app/.cg/editor/breakpoints.json into the worktree - and a minimal test Application, because IDEApplication's loaders call exitProcess when they fail under Robolectric.
  • :app: and :lsp:java: unit tests: 460 tests, 0 failures. spotlessApply clean.
  • On device (Pixel 6 Pro, Android 17, arm64), driving open/close through the ADFA-5067 deep link:
    • Pre-fix build: BreakpointHandler 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> 5 -> 6 -> 7 over seven cycles, never reclaimed; MemoryUsageWatcher likewise.
    • This build: no named debugger threads at all, and the process total plateaus flat over ten cycles - 146 / 143 / 145 / 145 / 148 / 148.
    • Breakpoints still render, toggle, and persist across close/reopen.

No UI change, so no font-scale pass applies.

Not addressed here

Two pre-existing issues the review surfaced, both outside this change and worth their own tickets:

  • JavaDebugAdapter._listenerState retains the client after close(), so JDWPListenerThread -> ListenerState -> IDEDebugClientImpl -> DebuggerViewModel stays reachable. That is a genuine retained-object leak, the kind LeakCanary does see.
  • close() neither resumes nor kills an attached debuggee, so closing the editor at a breakpoint leaves the target process frozen with no UI left to resume it.
  • TsAnalyzeWorker.stop() closes its dispatcher before cancelling its job, crashing the process on project close (ADFA-5401).

Found during the ADFA-3418 LeakCanary pass; not caused by it.

ADFA-5375 touches these three files, which enrolls them in the
`ratchetFrom = origin/stage` ratchet and reformats each in full.
Landing that separately keeps the fix reviewable.

IDEDebugClientImpl.kt was 4-space indented and becomes tabs; the other
two pick up ktlint's chained-call and wrapping rules. Three comments in
BreakpointHandler.computeNewBreakpointPosition moved from between `}`
and `else if` into the branch body - ktlint's if-else-wrapping rule
rejects them where they were, and the ratchet only surfaces it now.

Each DebuggerViewModel built two coroutine contexts that own OS threads -
newFixedThreadPoolContext(4, "IDEDebugClient") in IDEDebugClientImpl and
newSingleThreadContext("BreakpointHandler") - and closed neither, so every
destroyed editor activity leaked its threads. Seven open/close cycles on a
Note 20 Ultra left seven live BreakpointHandler threads.

BreakpointHandler and IDEDebugClientImpl are now AutoCloseable, and
DebuggerViewModel.onCleared() closes the client. Cancelling clientScope also
stops in-flight work from calling setThreads()/setConnectionState() on a
cleared view model, and detaches the client from EventBus, which it had
registered itself with in init.

Regression test: DebuggerThreadLeakTest counts live threads by name, the way
the leak was found on device - LeakCanary cannot see it, since it watches
objects. Verified it fails without the fix: the thread-count assertion
reports 1 where 0 is expected, and the leaked non-daemon thread then wedges
the Gradle test worker.

Sibling sweep of the other newSingleThreadContext/newFixedThreadPoolContext
owners: CodeEditorView and TsAnalyzeWorker already close theirs.
MemoryUsageWatcher.stopWatching() and the JDWP EventHandler.close() cancel
their work but leak their dispatcher the same way - left alone here, they
belong to different owners and want their own tickets.

Review Change Stack

📝 Summary
  • Replace thread-owning debugger dispatchers with bounded Dispatchers.IO.limitedParallelism.
  • Add safe debugger cleanup with idempotent close() methods, cancellation, listener removal, highlight removal, and pending-save flushing.
  • Reject debugger operations and callbacks after client closure.
  • Close debugger resources from DebuggerViewModel.onCleared().
  • Apply the dispatcher fix to MemoryUsageWatcher and the JDWP EventHandler.
  • Add regression tests for repeated view-model lifecycles, client closure, and pending breakpoint persistence.
  • :app and :lsp:java unit tests pass: 460 tests, 0 failures.
  • Device testing shows no named debugger threads and stable thread counts across ten lifecycle cycles.
  • Risk: limitedParallelism removes dedicated thread ownership but still depends on shared Dispatchers.IO capacity. Coroutine failures are logged and may otherwise appear as dropped debugger work.

Walkthrough

BreakpointHandler, IDEDebugClientImpl, MemoryUsageWatcher, and EventHandler now avoid owned worker threads and perform explicit coroutine cleanup. DebuggerViewModel closes the debug client during clearing. Robolectric tests cover lifecycle cleanup, closed-client behavior, thread stability, and breakpoint persistence.

Changes

Debugger lifecycle cleanup

Layer / File(s) Summary
BreakpointHandler lifecycle and persistence
app/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/lsp/BreakpointHandler.kt
BreakpointHandler uses serialized IO scopes, non-suspending event submission, idempotent closure, listener cleanup, and pending-save flushing.
Debug client and view model teardown
app/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/lsp/IDEDebugClientImpl.kt, app/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/viewmodel/DebuggerViewModel.kt
IDEDebugClientImpl guards operations after closure, cancels active work, and closes BreakpointHandler. DebuggerViewModel.onCleared closes the debug client.
Serialized dispatcher ownership
app/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/utils/MemoryUsageWatcher.kt, lsp/java/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/lsp/java/debug/EventHandler.kt
Both components replace dedicated thread contexts with limited-parallelism IO dispatchers. EventHandler.close() also cancels its adapter scope.
Debugger lifecycle validation
app/src/test/java/com/itsaky/androidide/viewmodel/DebuggerThreadLeakTest.kt
Robolectric tests cover repeated cleanup, scope closure, post-close breakpoint behavior, thread stability, and persistence during close.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 42df3

This change removes debugger-owned threads and changes shutdown behavior, but the current implementation can still lose accepted breakpoint edits during close, allow persistence failures to terminate the process, and race late debug callbacks with cleared state. These are concrete data-loss and runtime-stability risks, so the PR is not merge-ready until shutdown ordering, failure handling, and callback serialization are fixed.

Exercise the client pool in the repeated-lifecycle test.

This loop creates and clears ViewModels without calling toggleBreakpoint(). The IDEDebugClientImpl client pool can therefore remain unstarted, while the test only checks BREAKPOINT_THREAD. A regression that leaks client threads across repeated lifecycles would pass. Start client-pool work and await both thread prefixes in this test.

Serialize teardown with late debug callbacks.

clients.clear() does not make IDEDebugClientImpl closed. onAttach() and onDisconnect() can race with close() and mutate clients and viewModel.connectionState before their coroutine launch. A late callback can therefore repopulate clients or update the cleared DebuggerViewModel after onCleared().

Mark the client closed before teardown and serialize that state transition with the synchronous callback mutations. Do not rely only on clientScope cancellation.

Wait for the lazy client thread before asserting.

Waiting for BREAKPOINT_THREAD does not prove that the lazy CLIENT_THREAD has started. The immediate isGreaterThan assertion can observe the old count and fail intermittently. Poll until the client count is greater than clientThreads.

Follow-up to the AutoCloseable approach: the leak class disappears if these
classes never own a thread. Dispatchers.IO.limitedParallelism gives the same
parallelism bound and sequential confinement, owns nothing, and leaves no
close() for a future owner to forget.

Converts all four owners found by the sibling sweep:

  IDEDebugClientImpl  newFixedThreadPoolContext(4) -> limitedParallelism(4)
  BreakpointHandler   newSingleThreadContext       -> limitedParallelism(1)
  MemoryUsageWatcher  newSingleThreadContext       -> limitedParallelism(1)  (ADFA-5396)
  EventHandler (JDWP) newSingleThreadContext       -> limitedParallelism(1)  (ADFA-5397)

CodeEditorView and TsAnalyzeWorker keep theirs; both already close correctly.

Fixes found in review of the first approach:

- Cancelling the handler's scope also cancelled the 1s debounced breakpoint
  save, so a breakpoint added just before closing the editor was silently
  lost. Persistence now runs on a scope close() does not cancel, and close()
  flushes a pending save instead of waiting out the remaining delay.
- close() cancelled the consumer before closing the channel, dropping queued
  edits. It now closes the channel and lets the consumer drain; the scope owns
  no thread, so an idle scope costs nothing.
- toggle()/change() used Channel.send, which throws ClosedSendChannelException
  on a closed handler into a scope with no handler - and IDEApplication's
  uncaught handler turns that into exitProcess. They now trySend and log. Both
  scopes also got a CoroutineExceptionHandler: a failed debugger call must not
  take the IDE down.
- onAttach/onDisconnect run on the JDWP listener thread, which cancelling
  clientScope does not stop. Every entry point now returns early once closed.
- close() drops the debug highlight before clearing listeners, and the fields
  written across threads are @volatile.

Testing:

- DebuggerThreadLeakTest rewritten: thread names are gone, so it asserts that
  a second batch of seven view-model lifecycles adds no threads over the
  first. Verified it fails with a thread-owning dispatcher restored (30 vs a
  25 ceiling). The save test fails without the flush (1014ms vs a 500ms
  bound). Tests use a TemporaryFolder project dir - the previous version wrote
  an untracked app/.cg/editor/breakpoints.json into the worktree - and a
  minimal test Application, because IDEApplication's loaders call exitProcess
  when they fail under Robolectric.
- :app: and :lsp:java: unit tests, 460 tests, 0 failures.
- On device (Pixel 6 Pro, Android 17): pre-fix, seven open/close cycles grew
  BreakpointHandler 1 -> 7, never reclaimed. After: no named threads at all
  and the total plateaus flat across ten cycles (146/143/145/145/148/148).

Serialize closure with synchronous debug callbacks.

@Volatile does not make isClosed() and the later clients or connectionState mutations atomic. onAttach() or onDisconnect() can pass their check, then close() can clear state, then the callback can repopulate clients or update the cleared DebuggerViewModel.

Use one lifecycle lock for the closed transition and the synchronous callback mutations.

Handle save failures in saveScope.

Both saveScope.launch blocks call BreakpointRepository.saveBreakpoints() through writeBreakpoints(). If persistence throws, saveScope has no CoroutineExceptionHandler, so the exception can reach the process uncaught-exception handler. Catch non-cancellation failures inside each save coroutine, log them, and rethrow CancellationException.

Persist after the event consumer drains.

events.close() keeps already accepted events for the consumer, but flushPendingSave() writes the snapshot before those events finish. A queued Toggle or Save can update stateRef after this flush. Its later onSave() then returns because closed is true. The accepted edit is never written to disk.

Wait for the consumer to finish draining, then persist one final snapshot.

Stop each worker after an unexpected callback failure.

EventHandler callbacks can fail inside adapterScope.launch, leaving connected true while eventsJob remains failed. MemoryUsageWatcher callbacks can fail while watching remains true, preventing a later restart. Catch non-cancellation failures, log them with SLF4J, and set each worker to a stopped state. Rethrow CancellationException and clean up job state in finally.

Kotlin coroutines runInterruptible cancellation blocking call documentation EventQueue.remove JDI EventQueue remove InterruptedException

💡 Result:

The Kotlin coroutine function runInterruptible is designed to bridge synchronous, blocking Java code with coroutines by allowing the underlying thread to be interrupted when the coroutine is cancelled [1][2][3]. When you call a standard blocking Java method within a coroutine, calling job.cancel on the coroutine does not automatically interrupt the thread [3]. By wrapping that blocking call in runInterruptible, you enable the coroutine framework to monitor for cancellation and trigger Thread.interrupt on the thread executing the block [1][2][4]. If the blocking code throws an InterruptedException (which is the standard way Java methods signal an interruption), runInterruptible catches it and throws a CancellationException, allowing the coroutine to properly transition to a cancelled state [1][2][4]. In the context of the Java Debug Interface (JDI), the EventQueue.remove method is a classic example of a blocking call that throws InterruptedException [5][6]. If you use runInterruptible to wrap a call to eventQueue.remove, you can make your debugger's event-loop thread responsive to coroutine cancellation: suspend fun awaitEvent(eventQueue: EventQueue): EventSet = runInterruptible(Dispatchers.IO) { eventQueue.remove // Blocks until an event is available or thread is interrupted } In this pattern: 1. When the coroutine is cancelled, runInterruptible calls interrupt on the thread currently blocked inside eventQueue.remove [2][4]. 2. The JDI EventQueue.remove implementation will then throw InterruptedException [5][6]. 3. runInterruptible catches this InterruptedException and rethrows it as a CancellationException, effectively stopping the loop and cancelling the coroutine [2][4]. Without runInterruptible, the thread would remain blocked in eventQueue.remove even after the coroutine has been cancelled, potentially causing thread leaks or hanging shutdown processes [3][7]. Ensure that your blocking code is indeed interruptible; if the library function does not check the thread's interrupted status or handle InterruptedException, runInterruptible cannot force it to stop [7].

official Java JDI EventQueue.remove VirtualMachine.dispose VMDisconnectedException blocked remove contract

💡 Result:

In the Java Debug Interface (JDI), the EventQueue.remove and EventQueue.remove(long timeout) methods are designed to block while waiting for events from the target VirtualMachine [1][2]. If the connection to the target VM is lost or terminated, these methods will throw a VMDisconnectedException [1][2]. According to the official documentation, this VMDisconnectedException is guaranteed to be preceded by a VMDisconnectEvent [1][2]. This means that the JDI infrastructure ensures the disconnect notification is placed into the event queue before the exception is thrown, allowing a debugger to consume the event and perform necessary cleanup [1][2]. When VirtualMachine.dispose is called, it invalidates the virtual machine mirror, closes the communication channel to the target VM, cancels event requests, and resumes any suspended threads [3][4]. If a thread is currently blocked inside EventQueue.remove when dispose is invoked, the subsequent disconnection of the transport will cause remove to terminate by throwing the VMDisconnectedException [1][2]. To handle this gracefully, standard practice dictates that a debugger should continue to call remove to poll for events until it retrieves a VMDisconnectEvent [1][2]. Upon receiving the VMDisconnectEvent, the debugger can safely assume the connection is no longer functional and should terminate its event-reading loop [1][2]. Catching VMDisconnectedException is necessary, as it signifies that the connection is no longer available and the debugger should cease further attempts to interact with the target VM [1][2][5].

Make EventHandler.close() interrupt its blocking queue read.

eventsJob.cancel() does not interrupt queue.remove(), so direct handler shutdown can leave the listener active until VM disposal. Wrap the read in runInterruptible { queue.remove() } to make cancellation release the worker promptly. VmConnection.close() currently limits the impact by calling vm.dispose() afterward.
