Attach it to GDB via gdb -p PID and see where its stuck. Now examine various parameter values, to see what they are at the moment (this is convenient the process and libraries were compiled with -g i.e. with debugging information. Otherwise disassemble current (or previous frames) via gdb, and get ready for long session of reading assembly).

Check the process status and its id.if process is in waiting or hang state. if you have symbols/map file is available for the process binary. Try to use gdb to attach that process to get the stack trace. From the stack trace, you might get the problamtic fucntion.
