That makes sense, good solution.

> The current shutdown logic of the server shuts down the io threads first,
> followed by acceptor and finally processor threads. The shutdown API of io
> threads enqueues a special AllDone command into the common request queue. It
> shuts down the io thread when it dequeues this special all done command. What
> can happen is that while this shutdown command processing is happening on the
> io threads, the network/processor threads can still accept new connections
> and requests and will add those new requests to the request queue. That
> means, more requests can be enqueued after the AllDone command. What happens
> is that after the io threads have shutdown, there is no thread available to
> dequeue from the request queue. So the processor threads can hang while
> adding new requests to a full request queue, thereby blocking the server from
> shutting down.
