Backport of #75054 to release/7.0

/cc @buyaa-n @madelson

Customer Impact

The regression introduced when the scope of the lock reduced from reader to cache and as @madelson mentioned the deadlock happening because:

A customer who is migrating from 3.1 to 6.0 is blocked by a deadlock issue that is a regression from 3.1 => 6.0. This fixed in .NET 8.0 but as .NET 3.1 is reached end of life more customers might be migrating from .NET 3.1 to 6.0 or 7.0. and encounter this issue.

There is a workaround to use a new ResourceManager instance when planning to call GetResourceSet in different threads rather than re-using a shared instance, but not desirable.

Testing

  • Unit testing added with the fix
  • Manual tested with the repro in the issue

Risk

Low, the fix is removing the outer lock from ResourceReader.ResourceEnumerator and instead adding a granular lock for each method that use the shared _store and misses the lock in the ResourceReader (previously some methods had lock, some not, for which the caller putting a lock to the reader). Also, it adds some Debug.Asserts to make the locking acquired appropriately and corresponding unit test that reproes the issue.

I support the backport of this fix once the customer impact and risk sections are fully completed. @madelson had a lot of details in the related PR and issues explaining what leads to this deadlock, and this regression is impeding customers moving from an out-of-support LTS to an in-support LTS version.

Thanks, impact and risk sections are completed, just waiting on the customer testing result. I will check the failures later today

@jeffhandley given this, will this be considered for backport to .NET 6 or just 7?

This is approved, contingent upon partner signoff that the fix resolves their issue. Remove the NO-MERGE once we have signoff from the impacted customer.

There is one failure that is related: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/pull/81281/checks?check_run_id=10937934301 which is related to intermittent timeout, we need to add the fix for that, just pushed that commit

Concurrently enumerating a ResourceManager while also calling GetString()
and similar methods was prone to both transient errors and deadlock.

The transient errors were caused by RuntimeResourceSet calling internal
methods on ResourceReader that did not properly lock. Now, all exposed
methods on the Reader are thread-safe.

The deadlock was called by inconsistent lock ordering between
ResourceReader.ResourceEnumerator and RuntimeResourceSet which both lock
on the RuntimeResourceSet's cache and on the ResourceReader itself. Now,
the enumerator does not need to take both locks at the same time.

@buyaa-n thanks for pushing the fix. I don't see any failures related to resource manager. If there's nothing to address, can I remove the "no merge" label and merge this?

This is same as #81281 we are waiting for the customer sign off

As we did not get the partner signoff and it is the last day for 7.0.4 release code compete this fix not gonna happen in 7.0.4 release.

Though we still think the regression should be fixed in 6.0/7.0, so we will conduct some more testing especially in perf side and ask for porting in next release without customer sign off. Will not close the PR but removing the approval.

This is still marked as no-merge. Friendly reminder that the servicing branches open today.

Approved, signed-off, CI failures in latest run look unrelated, no OOB changes needed for the involved assemblies. Ready to merge. :shipit:
