Biju,
You say "databsae reboot".
Is this restarting all 4 instances in turn, or stopping all 4 then restarting them, or just restarting the stuck instance ?

Thank you, Jonathan. The user canceled and resubmitted the program and it completed. I checked SGA resize ops, and do not see many resize operations, and there was none during when the program was stuck last time. The odd part is that the problem persists even after a database reboot. Not consistent, on an average 1, out of 8 tries get stuck.
This is an EBS concurrent program. The program has more frequency of getting stuck if the user submits it as part of a "request set". User says it gets stuck almost all the time. If submitted as a single request, it completes most of the time. Still investigating other behaviors.

If you convert decimal to Hexadecimal to ASCII:
P1 is just a repeat of the lock information, reading IV, mode 5 P2 is supposed to be an object_id for the IV lock, but yours actually reads "SYNC" P3 = 3
Which node is the process running on ? The IV is supposed to synchronising library cache invalidation across instances. Perhaps P3 = 3 is a large-scale function, perhaps it's saying that this instance is waiting for instance 3 (which might be 4 depending on whether Oracle is counting from 0 or 1 in this case).
One guess: do you see SGA resizes at the time this is happening - perhaps one instance starts resizing and locks up the other instances as it does so.

Trying to troubleshoot a stuck program. The program gets stuck at a particular wait event 1 out of every 8 runs on an average. When the program completes, it finishes in few minutes. When it is stuck, the P1, P2 values are always the same. Can you please tell what the P1, P2, P3 values represent.
Current Wait Event enq: IV - contention Current Wait Class Other P1 type|mode 1230372869 P2 id1 1398361667 P3 id2 3 Object None
They are not OBJECT_IDs.
Version: Oracle database 11.2.0.4
RAC Database, 4 nodes.
Thanks for your help.
