是否有可能使线程自身死锁？

Question

从技术上讲，Java中的线程自身可能死锁吗？

不久前，我在一次采访中被问到这是不可能的，但采访者告诉我这是可能的。不幸的是，我无法获得他的方法来解决这种僵局。

这让我开始思考，我唯一能想到的就是发生这种情况的地方是您拥有一个RMI服务器进程，其中包含一个调用自身的方法。调用该方法的代码行放置在同步块中。

甚至有可能还是面试官不正确？

我一直在考虑的源代码遵循这些原则（其中testDeadlock在RMI服务器进程中运行）

public boolean testDeadlock () throws RemoteException {
    synchronized (this) {
        //Call testDeadlock via RMI loopback            
    }
}

JVM仅跟踪具有监视器的本地线程，如果调用类对其自身进行外部调用，则传入调用将导致原始线程自身死锁。

您应该能够运行此代码来说明这个想法

import java.rmi.*;
import java.rmi.registry.LocateRegistry;
import java.rmi.registry.Registry;
import java.rmi.server.*;

public class DeadlockThreadExample {

    public static interface DeadlockClass extends Remote {
        public void execute() throws RemoteException;
    }

    public static class DeadlockClassImpl extends UnicastRemoteObject implements DeadlockClass {
        private Object lock = new Object();

        public DeadlockClassImpl() throws RemoteException {
            super();
        }

        public void execute() throws RemoteException {
            try {
                System.out.println("execute()::start");

                synchronized (lock) {
                    System.out.println("execute()::Entered Lock");
                    DeadlockClass deadlockClass = (DeadlockClass) Naming.lookup("rmi://localhost/DeadlockClass");
                    deadlockClass.execute();
                }
                System.out.println("execute()::Exited Lock");
            } catch (NotBoundException e) {
                System.out.println(e.getMessage());
            } catch (java.net.MalformedURLException e) {
                System.out.println(e.getMessage());
            }
            System.out.println("execute()::end");
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        LocateRegistry.createRegistry(Registry.REGISTRY_PORT);
        DeadlockClassImpl deadlockClassImpl = new DeadlockClassImpl();
        Naming.rebind("DeadlockClass", deadlockClassImpl);
        DeadlockClass deadlockClass = (DeadlockClass) Naming.lookup("rmi://localhost/DeadlockClass");
        deadlockClass.execute();
        System.exit(0);
    }
}

程序的输出看起来像

execute()::start
execute()::Entered Lock
execute()::start

此外，该线程还转储显示以下内容

"main" prio=6 tid=0x00037fb8 nid=0xb80 runnable [0x0007f000..0x0007fc3c]

这表明线程确实已经成功锁定了自己
