Yes, reproduce the issue on your test infrastructure. then generate a
backtrace [1].

[1] https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Getting+a+Backtrace


How can I reproduce when I don't know what causes the "deadlock" ??

That is part of my question : what can have caused this "deadlock" ?
I can go on for weeks without any problem, and then suddenly there's
what appears to be a "deadlock".

That's what the backtrace will tell us. If you already have
DONT_OPTIMIZED compiled on your production server, then attach gdb to
the process and generate the backtrace.

I can not reproduce a problem which I don't know what causes it.

These seems like the chicken and the egg.

There is no core-file generated. It's just the CLI that freezes, not a
restart of Asterisk.

You don't need a core-file for a deadlock, you are confusing it was a crash.

Regardless, my previous comment was not complete. There is nothing you can do until you recompile and enable DEBUG_THREADS (information available from the previous wiki link). And yes, this will cause a performance hit to your system,

But in general, are there no general causes to a "deadlock" or the Asterisk-CLI that freezes ??

I read on the wiki :
/A program is in deadlock when it is in a state where one or more of its components are waiting on something they will never get. I don't now the internal structure of Asterisk but I believe it is multi-threaded. A simple example of a deadlock is if a thread A were waiting on a resource that thread B has locked, and thread B is waiting for something thread A has locked./

But I see no such information in my verbose/messages/debug-logfiles

Can I create a deadlock with bad programming in the dialplan ?? I have already replaced all macro's with GoSub where possible.

There were 36 calls... Only 15% CPU (8 cores) and Asterisk uses about 750000Kb of memory (4 GB available).
