Hi. I started to load / stress test our web application. It is running under Apache 1.3.22 and Tomcat 4.03 and the mod_jk binary that came with it. The OS is Linux 2.4.7, RedHat 7.2 without any updates.
I discovered that httpd processes deadlock after a certain amount of huge requests. I decided to investigate the issue by looking at the source code. The jk_handler function does not terminate. In fact, the call to end->done($end, l) (just before the jk_close_pool) deadlock (not always however). That function calls pthread mutex lock/unlock for connection reuse. I tried to comment all connection reuse code. (in jk_ajp_done, jk_ajp_service, jk_ajp_getendpoint). The deadlock is not gone, but it appears later. Have you ever encountered this problem before? I'd like to fix it. May it be a kernel bug, glibc bug? (The problem seems to come from pthread mutexes...)
