rhtyd opened a new pull request #2314: CLOUDSTACK-10136: Fix RemoteHostEndPoint
thread growth
URL: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/2314
This fixes the following:
- Unchecked thread growth in RemoteEndHostEndPoint
- Potential NPE while finding EP for a storage/scope
Unbounded thread growth can be reproduced with following findings:
- Every unreachable template would produce 6 new threads (in a single
ScheduledExecutorService instance) spaced by 10 seconds
- Every reachable template url without the template would produce 1 new
thread (and one ScheduledExecutorService instance), it errors out quickly
without
causing more thread growth.
- Every valid url will produce upto 10 threads as the same ep (endpoint
instance) will be reused to query upload/download (async callback)
progresses.
Every RemoteHostEndPoint instances creates its own
ScheduledExecutorService instance which is why in the jstack dump, we
see several threads that share the prefix RemoteHostEndPoint-{1..10}
(given poolsize is defined as 10, it uses suffixes 1-10).
This fixes the discovered thread leakage with following notes:
- Instead of ScheduledExecutorService instance, a cached pool could be
used instead and was implemented, and with `static` scope to be reused
among other future RemoteHostEndPoint instances.
- It was not clear why we would want to wait when we've Answers returned
from the remote EP, and therefore a scheduled/delayed Runnable was
not required at all for processing answers. ScheduledExecutorService
was therefore not really required, moved to ExecutorService instead.
- Another benefit of using a cached pool is that it will shutdown
threads if they are not used in 60 seconds, and they get re-used for
future runnable submissions.
- Caveat: the executor service is still unbounded, however, the use-case
that this method is used for short jobs to check upload/download
progresses fits the case here.
- Refactored CmdRunner to not use/reference objects from parent class.
Screenshots showing deterministic thread growth for template with an
invalid/unreachable URL:
Screenshot showing threads transitioning from waiting->stopped (and re-use)
with this fix:
To verify, the following can be tried:
- Before applying this fix, in a test environment register two template such
that (1) one has a reachable IP/domain but the resource does not exist (causing
404) and (2) the second template uses a domain/IP that is not reachable at all
- Thread growths can be checked using: `jstack -l <mgmt server PID> | grep
RemoteHostEndPoint`, or using a visual tool such as VisualVM etc.
- With the fix + restart, the mgmt server will reattempt to download those
template, and a humungous thread growth won't be seen and after say 2-4 minutes
all the threads should shutdown, and `jstack -l <mgmt server PID> | grep
RemoteHostEndPoint` will show no threads.

> For long running mgmt server with large amounts of templates etc, large
> amounts of waiting threads are seen that start with the 'RemoteHostEndPoint-'
> prefix. These async threads are responsible mostly for checking
> template/volume upload/download progress/states. They kick everytime a
> template is being checked/downloaded setup etc.
