res_odbc blocks datastore while a transaction waits for a lock
--------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: ASTERISK-20326
                 URL: https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-20326
             Project: Asterisk
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: None
          Components: Resources/res_odbc
    Affects Versions: 10.7.0
         Environment: RHEL 2.6.32-220.el6.x86_64 GNU/Linux
            Reporter: Christoph Sitter


I have set up res_odbc to use a pool of 10 connections per resource (oracle 11g connections) and I also wrote a C-Module which uses res_odbc for Oracle connection management.

What I'm doing:
  - Start a transaction
  - select for update (read + lock)
  - update
  - commit/rollback

When I now lock the row that is affected by the transaction from within another session, the "select for update" has to wait until the other session has committed it's work.
This is an expected behaviour and res_odbc does not produce any errors here.

The problem is to get a further connection.
In my case, I want to read a different row from the same table, but ast_odbc_request_obj hangs until the work is committed and the transactional "select for update" stops waiting.

I tried to find out where exactly the problem is, and I think that it is the following command:


ast_odbc_request_obj2(...) {
...
    if (class->haspool) {
        /* Recycle connections before building another */
-->     obj = ao2_callback(class->obj_container, 0, aoro2_obj_cb, EOR_TX);
...
}


Hopefully this problem can be fixed soon ;)

best regards
Christoph
