John Plevyak commented on TS-1405:
----------------------------------
No, in the current patch (v10) in process_event the event will only be free'd
if cancelled is set to CANCEL_SET which means that the Event is not in the
atomic_list.
The current v10 patch is simple, fast and has no delay and hence no opportunity
for timing related problems.
The previous patch checks Event::in_the_priority_queue which can change state
at any time when the Event::ethread != this_ethread(). This is a race, and as a
result the state of the Event being on the atomic_list is not knowable in the
EThread during ::execute(). This will result in crashes. You may not be
seeing them because we typically pin all transactions to a single thread unless
proxy.config.share_server_session is set to 1, so Event::ethread ==
this_ethread(), however that is not the case in general. Try testing with this
and the appropriate configuration and you will see the problem.

> when have more and more event in event system scheduler, it's worse. This is
> the reason why we use inactivecop to handler keepalive. the new scheduler is
> time-wheel. It's have better time complexity(O(1))
