mohan_zl updated TS-971:
------------------------
Attachment: TS-evacuate-fix.patch
Understand the cause of this bug, the patch has fixed it. Now as the TS-970 and
TS-971 are both fixed, the cache feature can works well.
The bug is caused in this way: in Vol::aggWrite, the line "io.thread =
AIO_CALLBACK_THREAD_AIO" cause AIO thread directly call continuation handler
"Vol::aggWriteDone", and the MUTEX_LOCK make vol->mutex->thread_holding is the
current AIO thread, which is a DEDICATED thread. If you enable cache evacuate,
then something error happens: CacheVC::evacuateDocDone will call do_read_call,
which call CacheVC::handleRead, and in CacheVC::handleRead, line "io.thread =
mutex->thread_holding" will use current AIO thread to do asynchronous io, but
AIO is a DEDICATED thread, it will neeeeever do this action, and the ink_assert
macro will cause ats crash.
I think the division of every thread's labor is not very clear, for example,
the aio thread is a DEDICATED thread, so if you wanna use it to call
continuation handler, which should be done by REGULAR thread, some bug will
happen. Besides, the epoll_wait should be done by a special thread like POLL
thread, not ET_NET thread, which is in actually a worker thread, isn't it?
