Hello,
We recently launched an update that includes "androidx.work:work-runtime:2.0.1", and we used it to schedule all our tasks now, in a satisfactory way. I just want to inform, (as you can see in the images attached below), that this problem keeps happening sporadically.
Keep in mind that the number of users affected in our case is small, since the app has several million active users, but it also starts to be worrisome, since the number of errors generated by each user is high.
The errors mainly occur in Android 6 and 7, and sometimes in 8, but especially in Android 7.
I do not expose implementation details, since the documentation of this SDK has been thoroughly studied, and in case there was a bad implementation, the number of errors would be infinitely greater.
Greetings.
PD: If you need any information that I can provide you, you just have to ask me.

Thanks for re-uploading the screenshots.
A couple of questions:
* Can you reproduce this issue at all on your end ? If so, can you send us all WorkManager logs after turning on logging. For this you will have to use custom initialization and use Log.DEBUG. For more information look athttps://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/architecture/workmanager/advanced/custom-configuration
* Can you send us a breakdown of devices and total # of users affected ? The number of crashes will be dis proportionally high because once the app gets into this state - its hard to get out of it.

Version used: 1.0.0-alpha06
Devices/Android versions reproduced on: Many
We can see a large number of ConcurrentModificationExceptions in WorkManager:

It looks like the mListeners set is being modified during the loop in ConstraintTracker.setState(). I see two potential issues with this method:
1. Maybe a listener is added or removed in onConstraintChanged(). I haven't seen this happen, but it might be good to make a copy of mListeners and iterate over the copy.
2. The NetworkStateTracker.mNetworkCallback is called on a different thread than the main thread. In consequence setState() is called on a different thread so there is a possibility that the main thread adds or removes a listener. This cannot be the (only) reason because the error happens in response to the CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE.
This may be fixed with synchronization or by registering mNetworkCallback to run on the main thread.
