Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPASYNC-86:
--------------------------------------------

Hi Jose
I think I figured it out. It looks like the main thread (the one that fires off new requests) gets jammed for so long that the i/o dispatch succeeds in executing the request, processing the response and releasing the connection before the connection staleness check is completed. Now I need to figure out how to fix it.

> I have found a race condition in the async client when a POST request reuses a keep alive connection. We have around 2%-4% of our runs in a Continuous Integration environment failing because of this issue.
> I have found a consistent way of forcing the failure by using a debugger, so I can force the events to happen in the order which uncovers the problem.
> I have tested it on httpasyncclient 4.0.2 / httpcore 4.3.2 and httpasyncclient 4.1-beta1 / httpcore 4.4-beta1 and it happens in both versions (the lines provided in the steps to reproduce are from version 4.0.2).
> How to reproduce:
> 1) Add these breakpoints:
> a - DefaultClientExchangeHandlerImpl:304
> b - DefaultClientExchangeHandlerImpl:168
> 2) Run AsyncClientRaceConditionSample sample program
> Processing first request:
> -  Program hits breakpoint a -> Resume
> -  Program hits breakpoint b -> Resume
> Processing second request:
> - Program hits breakpoints a and b (in different threads)
> - Resume a)
> - Resume b)
> (Probably adding a small sleep after DefaultClientExchangeHandlerImpl:303 only for the testing would also uncover the issue).

> Some analysis from my side:
> 1 - When the first request is processed, this is the execution order of relevant lines (and the thread where it is processed):
> a - (I/O dispatcher 1) DefaultClientExchangeHandlerImpl<T>.connectionAllocated(NHttpClientConnection) line: 303
> b - (I/O dispatcher 1) DefaultClientExchangeHandlerImpl<T>.connectionAllocated(NHttpClientConnection) line: 304
> c - (I/O dispatcher 1) CPoolProxy.detach() line: 60
> d - (I/O dispatcher 1) DefaultClientExchangeHandlerImpl<T>.responseCompleted() line: 168
> 2 - When the second request is processed c) might happen before b) which leads to the problem:
> a - (main) DefaultClientExchangeHandlerImpl<T>.connectionAllocated(NHttpClientConnection) line: 303
> c - (I/O dispatcher 1) CPoolProxy.detach() line: 60
> b - (main) DefaultClientExchangeHandlerImpl<T>.connectionAllocated(NHttpClientConnection) line: 304
> e - (main) BasicFuture<T>.failed(Exception) line: 122
> d - (I/O dispatcher 1) DefaultClientExchangeHandlerImpl<T>.responseCompleted() line: 168
> The problem is that in case 2 the connection can be closed before request is completed because a) is processed in main thread and c) is processed in I/O dispatcher thread, so the ordering b < c is not guaranteed.
> However in case 1 because all the events are processed in I/O dispatcher thread, the ordering b < c is guaranteed (this seems to be true even if there are several dispatcher threads).
