Strange issue with threads

Another day, another issue. In testing my new FreeBSD port, I've had to start and restart the server several times. I noticed that the server was taking a long time to stop. It didn't matter if it was a hard restart or a graceful restart.

After turning on tracing, I found that pthread_join() was taking several seconds to stop some of the threads.

My question - Has anyone else noticed slowness (in the order of over 5-10 seconds and more!) when restarting Cherokee? During this time, all IO is blocked, so nothing can be served, which is a bit of a problem. While restarting rarely happens, it makes it difficult for making quick changes.

I'm trying to figure out if it's just something with FreeBSD or if it's happening with other OS's as well, so input from anyone is welcome.

Re: Strange issue with threads [In reply to]

I'm using Cherokee in slackware, compiling it my way. I've tested it
with no considerable load and I've never experienced such problem.
If you can send me your port in private I'll look if this happens to
me (I have a FreeBSD box).

I haven't noticed such behavior in any modern version.

Which version are you running?

I'll post my observations here as well.

In reading your post about issue with threads I watched my server restart more
closely. I guess it does actually take a little bit of time to kill the process.
It looks like this for example:

Stopping cherokee.
Waiting for PIDS: 38173, 38173, 38173, 38173, 38173.

It's always the list of 5 PIDS. I've always assumed it just waiting for the
5 php-cgi child processes to die. So I tried a restart immediately after the
server was restarted, and before any php-cgi processes were started, and it's
actually the same thing, the 5 repeated PIDS before it's done. Without looking
at a watch I counted about 6 or 7 seconds before it was complete. Startup on the
other hand is next to instantaneous.

This is also on FreeBSD. FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p1.

I also have cherokee 0.99.17 (from the "sid" repository) running on my Debian
5.01 (Mostly Lenny, some mixed packages) server at home. I watched the restart
on it, and it is definitely faster. Maybe 2-3 seconds before the process stops
and then the same near instantaneous startup.

Hope that is useful information.

Jason

Re: Strange issue with threads [In reply to]

Hi Jaime,

I hope you're doing fine.
I just tested cherokee on FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE running on a i386 box. I
installed your port just out of the box and configured a virtual host with
PHP as FastCGI, everything by default (in fact, I've used the wizard). Good
news: after opening several http sessions requesting php files, I performed
a hard restart and it tooks 2 seconds. Then I tried a graceful restart and
it tooks a couple additional seconds because of the gracefulness.
I'm also running cherokee on Linux, so I compared both. To be honest, there
is no visible difference.
Well, I hope it helps. Let me know if I can help you further.
Cheers

Pablo

I've tested it on Linux and MacOS X. In both cases it restarted in a
fairly acceptable time.

Anyway, it sounds like something worth checking (at least on FreeBSD).
Could you please log a bug for it so we ensure it's in the to-do list?

Thanks!

0.99.17 - Just updated to 0.99.18 to see if the results are the same. System is a newly built Quad Core (Intel) with FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE 64-bit.

Similar results on 7.2-STABLE 32-bit, though not as long.

I see that Jason has already published a bug, so I'll post my trace results there.

Re: Strange issue with threads [In reply to]

Pablo,

Can you try the following?

1) Install Cherokee using the default cherokee.conf file. This just serves up the default cherokee page.

2) Start the server using the FreeBSD RC script

3) Wait a minute, restart the server using /usr/local/etc/rc.d/cherokee restart

4) Observe the number of times the system is "Waiting for PIDS"

Typically, it shouldn't have to wait hardly at all.

It's possible that adding PHP to the mix may "fix" the issue, which I'll test in a little bit, but I've just been testing core functionality first.

Hello Jaime,

I followed your instructions carefully and got the same result. I got only
one time the message "Waiting for PIDS" and the restart took just a couple

I don't see any problem on this...
Hope it helps. Don't hesitate to contact me for further testing.
