[Bug 24521] New: Civilization V eventually crashes with too many open files

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24521

Summary: Civilization V eventually crashes with too many open
                    files
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.3
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Hard to reproduce (takes a lot of time), but it might be some sort of leak
somewhere:

err:winediag:FILE_CreateFile Too many open files, ulimit -n probably needs to
be increased
err:winediag:FILE_CreateFile Too many open files, ulimit -n probably needs to

May be an application bug. What is your file limit set to? Have you tried on
windows?

ulimit -n is set to 1024. Maybe an app bug but I haven't heard of such an issue
on it.

Hmm, happened again:
err:winediag:FILE_CreateFile Too many open files, ulimit -n probably needs to
be increased
CellID: Connecting to 87.248.222.123:27031. . .
CellID: Caught exception: WSASocket() failed to create session socket, WinSock
Error 10024 "Too many open sockets"

fixme:d3d:buffer_PreLoad Too many full buffer conversions, stopping converting
err:winediag:FILE_CreateFile Too many open files, ulimit -n probably needs to

I'll get a +file log. How long should it be? 30 minutes is enough?

With ulimit -n set to 8192, the game still crashes but it took much, *much*
longer.

So finally hit this bug with Civ. Knowing it existed I took a look at the Civ V
process using lsof to see which files it had open. It turns out it has the same
directory open via about 600 file descriptors. So it has all the appearances of
a file descriptor "leak" in one of the API implementations. The offending
directory looks like this in lsof:

Civilizat 32577 me  160r   DIR               8,33      4096     789724
/home/me/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/mui

And the command to figure this out is:

lsof -p <pid of CivilizationV.exe> | grep system32/mui | wc -l

which reports 598 of the 1025 open files (using the standard 1024-fd limit)
referencing that directory. I skimmed the rest of the open files and they are:

Libraries (.so, .dll)
Fonts
Sound files
Game data packs (e.g. .fpk)
FIFOs (There were quite a few! I can't tell if this is how it's supposed to
work or also a symptom..)
a .db file or two

But mostly that directory.

Other details: The whole Civ screen freezes *except* the cursor. Even kill
-SIGSTOP doesn't "stop" the cursor. Switching VTs just made the whole screen
except the cursor black. Given what little I do know about X+wine I doubt this
latter information about the screen contents is pertinent -- I'm including it
just in case I'm wrong.

As long as it takes for it to run out of fd's ideally.  You could reduce ulimit
-n to the point where you can play normally and have it happen earlier I guess.

I'd suggest adding +msvcrt too just incase it's useful.  You might want to pipe
the output through bzip2 while it's running instead of compressing it after.

I've run into this a few times around Year 1848-1870 of the game, and have a
save game that can reproduce the situation reliably. As soon as the save game
is loaded, Civ 5 is using 1023 file handles, mostly of a particular directory:

wineserve  6870 tstromberg 1020r      DIR                8,2         4096   
4720131 /home/tstromberg/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/mui
wineserve  6870 tstromberg 1021r      DIR                8,2         4096   
4720131 /home/tstromberg/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/mui
wineserve  6870 tstromberg 1022r      DIR                8,2         4096   
4720131 /home/tstromberg/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/mui
wineserve  6870 tstromberg 1023r      DIR                8,2         4096   
4720131 /home/tstromberg/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/mui

I can usually reliably crash it by bombing a ship afterwards. I've seen this
bug in both wine 1.3.3 and 1.3.4, both vista and xp. Unfortunately I can't seem
to figure out how to export a save game file.

I have found that you can work-around this bug simply by removing or renaming
the SYSTEM32\MUI directory to something else. Then Civ5 only uses 637 file
handles.

I haven't had the game crash yet (don't think I got to such a timeframe... I
was in the 1800's today, Civ5 gave a thread creation error and then crashed)
but I do have it lose it's saving functionality completely after a while. Load
game screen lists no games, save game doesn't save any. Perhaps this is related
to having too many file descriptors open?

I noticed the save game issue too, but it could be an app bug.

I've emailed support (bought the game), so I'll post back here if they get to
replying at all.

It's a Civ V bug, it leaks file handles on Windows too.

I wont be the last person to find this on Google. Was there any update ?

I still get this on Ubuntu 14.04 with Wine 1.7 from the official PPA.

Renaming both ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/MUI and
~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/MUI stops the crash on save game load. And
also makes the game start many times faster over all.
