Sarthak Shukla created POOL-407:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Threads get stuck when idleObjects list is empty.
                 Key: POOL-407
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/POOL-407
             Project: Commons Pool
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.8.1
            Reporter: Sarthak Shukla


While borrowing object from pool, threads are getting stuck. I initialised the 
pool size as 1. And had 3 threads created. First thread enters borrowObject 
method, since there are no idle objects to poll from, it will create one object 
and move forward.
{quote}p = (PooledObject)this.idleObjects.pollFirst();

if (p == null) {

     p = this.create();

     if (p != null) {

        create = true;

      }

}
{quote}
The other two threads will also follow same path and check for idle 
objects(there are none), will try to create one object but the pool size is set 
to 1. Thus, the two threads will move forward and enter 
*idleObjects.takeFirst()* function. Value of blockWhenExhausted is true and 
borrowMaxWaitMillis is -1 as we don't want timeout.
{quote}if (blockWhenExhausted) {
   if (p == null) {
      if (borrowMaxWaitMillis < 0L) {
           p = (PooledObject)this.idleObjects.takeFirst();
      } else {
           p = (PooledObject)this.idleObjects.pollFirst(borrowMaxWaitMillis, 
TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
      }
   }

   if (p == null) {
      throw new NoSuchElementException("Timeout waiting for idle object");
   }
}
{quote}
Now, the main thread does *this.factory.activateObject(p);* and object gets 
activated. Now, when the validation is checked *validate = 
this.factory.validateObject(p);* it comes out to be false as provider might 
have been disconnected.

So, the object is destroyed by calling *this.destroy(p);*
{quote}private void destroy(PooledObject<T> toDestroy) throws Exception {
     toDestroy.invalidate();
     this.idleObjects.remove(toDestroy);
     this.allObjects.remove(new 
BaseGenericObjectPool.IdentityWrapper(toDestroy.getObject()));

     try {
        this.factory.destroyObject(toDestroy);
     } finally {
        this.destroyedCount.incrementAndGet();
        this.createCount.decrementAndGet();
     }
}
{quote}
The object which was created is now destroyed and removed from idleObject and 
allObjects list. Now, the other two threads are still waiting to take object 
from idle objects list but there are no object present. Hence, the two threads 
are in wait state for infinite period and the application waits forever until 
we kill the process.
{quote}public E takeFirst() throws InterruptedException {
   this.lock.lock();

   Object var2;
   try {
      Object x;
      while((x = this.unlinkFirst()) == null) {
         this.notEmpty.await();
      }

      var2 = x;
    } finally {
      this.lock.unlock();
    }
    return var2;
}
{quote}
