Hi Ben,

I checked the error trace and it should not leave any dangling lock (due mishandled error). Before disabling HEP, try to disable the async support for HEP.

If you claim that the same 100% CPU happens with HEP + UDP, send me a trap for that too, as in the previous case, the deadlock was exclusively HEP + TCP related.

Anyhow, as the original trap showed a deadlock, next step will be to recompile with the DBG_LOCK option - this enables extra code to debug/troubleshoot locking related issues - are you able to do it?

Bogdan,

Actually, yes we do. Looking back I can see these errors just before the issue occurs:

Oct 24 19:00:36 [5700] ERROR:proto_hep:send_hep_message: Cannot send hep message!

Oct 24 19:00:36 [5700] ERROR:proto_hep:msg_send: send() to 10.32.163.211:9061 for proto hep_tcp/9 failed

Oct 24 19:00:36 [5700] ERROR:proto_hep:hep_tcp_send: failed to send

Oct 24 19:00:36 [5700] ERROR:proto_hep:async_tsend_stream: Failed first TCP async send : (32) Broken pipe

I will try disabling HEP and see if we can reproduce.

Just for information, I have been reproducing the issue in our testing environment which uses TCP for HEP, however the issue is occurring in our production environment as well which is still using UDP for HEP.

Hi Ben,

Thank you for the info.

It looks like the processes get stuck into a HEP related internal lock - do you see any HEP related errors in your logs, prior to the dead-lock ?

Also, as PoC, could you disabled HEP tracing to see if the problem goes away ?

Thanks,

    Bogdan,

    I have run the command but the output was too large for pastebin
    so I have sent it to you directly.

    Hi Ben,

    Could you run "opensipsctl trap" ?

        Hi,

        We have implemented TCP recently and are performing TCP<->UDP
        translation on one of our proxy types. This proxy only exists
        for that purpose; there are no DB queries, REST calls, or
        anything like that. It is designed to be very fast and high
        throughput.

        Recently we have found that when the remote endpoint of a TCP
        connection is lost, i.e. the server goes down, while under
        moderate load OpenSIPS quickly reaches 100% CPU and becomes
        unresponsive. When this occurs, the “top” command shows that
        between 30-90% CPU is in System (kernel) space, and each
        OpenSIPS TCP process shows many times the normal CPU. We are
        running OpenSIPS 2.4.2 on Amazon Linux.

        I obtained as much information as I could using ps, strace,
        and gdb here: https://pastebin.com/JP3DnCqs
        <https://pastebin.com/JP3DnCqs>. We can reproduce the failure
        consistently by removing a server during call traffic.

        A few things I noticed:

          * The number of running threads reported by OpenSIPS doesn’t
            align with our configuration, copied here:

        ####### Global Parameters #########

        children=32

        #// Allow 503 to pass back to Control

        disable_503_translation=yes

        #// Even though we are not receiving HEP,

        #// this listener is required by OpenSIPS

        #// in order to use the proto_hep module. :/

        listen=hep_tcp:10.32.40.245:9061 use_children 1

        #// Configure the listeners

        listen=udp:10.32.40.245:5060 as XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

        listen=tcp:10.32.40.245:5060 as XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

        #// Transaction Module

        loadmodule "tm.so"

        modparam("tm", "restart_fr_on_each_reply", 0)

        modparam("tm", "timer_partitions", 8)

        modparam("tm", "onreply_avp_mode", 1)

        modparam("tm", "wt_timer", 10)

        According to the documentation if “tcp_children” is not set
        then the value of “children” will be used [1], but we have set
        “children” to 32 and only have the default 8 TCP processes.
        Also we appear to only have 1 timer process, although we have
        set the number of timer partitions to 8.

          * The server that is terminated was using TCP connections
            exclusively, but all of the CPU seems to be in the UDP
            threads. The one I looked at appeared to be handling a
            CANCEL to one of the calls that was active and was
            attempting to send it out via TCP. I’m not sure why it
            would be trying to relay the CANCEL as no 100 Trying had
            been received from the server. I have noticed that in 2.x
            OpenSIPS will now send CANCELs for transactions even when
            100 Trying was not received. Is that intentional? RFC 3261
            states that no CANCEL should be sent unless a provisional
            response has been received.

        Any assistance with this would be appreciated.
