SYSTEMSTATE DUMP: Shooting DB Hang, sqlplus Hang, self deadlock latch, PMON deadlock latch

One DB is hang. Try to login with "sqlplus / as sysdba" also fail, just hang there.

I use "-prelim" option to login and make a systemstate dump.

Below is the ass.awk output for systemstate dump:

Blockers
~~~~~~~~

        Above is a list of all the processes. If they are waiting for a resource
        then it will be given in square brackets. Below is a summary of the
        waited upon resources, together with the holder of that resource.
        Notes:
        ~~~~~
         o A process id of '???' implies that the holder was not found in the
           systemstate.

Enqueue PR-00000000-00000000

Obviously the root blocker is latch: 60009fc8. But unluckily the systemstate dump don't have the infor that which session is holding the latch:
alpcispdb552[oracle]_pgbs> cat pgbs_diag_2254.trc|grep 60009fc8
      waiting for 60009fc8  process allocation level=7
        address=0x60009fc8, number=0x9, tries=0x0
          p1: 'address'=0x60009fc8

      waiting for 60009fc8  process allocation level=7
      waiting for 60009fc8  process allocation level=7
      waiting for 60009fc8  process allocation level=7
      waiting for 60009fc8  process allocation level=7

Then let's choose any one blocked process to check:
PROCESS 34: MMON

Above blocked process is MMON, pay attention to red part, it is waiting for 60009fc8, and latch's possible holder ospid: 26755.

Let’s check ospid 26755:

PROCESS 50:
  ----------------------------------------
  SO: 0x19f2ef058, type: 2, owner: (nil), flag: INIT/-/-/0x00 if: 0x3 c: 0x3

    O/S info: user: oracle, term: UNKNOWN, ospid: 26755
    OSD pid info: Unix process pid: 26755, image: oracle@alpcispdb552)

We can see the Process 26755 is blocked by itself. A self deadlock latch issue.

Then i kill the Process 26755 from OS level with "kill -9" to get the latch released. But unluckly the DB is still hang.

I make a latest systemstate and check:

        Above is a list of all the processes. If they are waiting for a resource
        then it will be given in square brackets. Below is a summary of the
        waited upon resources, together with the holder of that resource.

We can see pmon is also blocked on latch 60009fc8.

And below is the process dump for PMON:

PROCESS 2: PMON

    O/S info: user: oracle, term: UNKNOWN, ospid: 1311
    OSD pid info: Unix process pid: 1311, image: oracle@server552(PMON)

We can see PMON is waiting on latch 60009fc8, blocked by the process that we just killed.

It is clear to us now:
process 26755 was in self deadlock state on latch 60009fc8 and blocked other processes. Later i killed process 26755 to release the latch, then pmon should go to clean the process and release the resource.
But before pmon start to work, pmon itself also require the same latch: 60009fc8 and hence blocked and can't progress.
So it is a typiclly pmon deadlock.

We had to bounce the DB at last.
