--------------------------------------------------------------------

Is it a duplicate? We experience a deadlock with only like 50+ calls, the more it goes above that the more likely a deadlock will be (SIP channel driver, not IAX). I have reported this before but needed a backtrace and to debug threads, but it seems leaving DEBUG_THREADS on is a big no no for us as it makes it deadlock even more.

Catch-22.

But I am suspecting our deadlocks may be one and the same - and that it happens even without DEBUG_THREADS, only that DEBUG_THREADS makes it a lot more likely because of how much slower the reload becomes.

> ,When using "DEBUG THREADS" in compiler flags, to be able to provide information for a deadlock issue, the asterisk -rx "module reload" command stops working after a while with the message (when trying to issue the command again):
> VERBOSE[34579] loader.c: The previous reload command didn't finish yet
> And only a shutdown of asterisk seems to fix it.
> I am using res_config_mysql for realtime configuration as well, with 50000 rows or so, if that matters. Without the debugging it's very quick to load , and I cannot reproduce the error. With the debugging it takes a lot longer plus it takes just 5-10 reloads to reproduce the issue above.
> A weird thing happens when I issue the command:
> gdb -ex "thread apply all bt" --batch /usr/sbin/asterisk `pidof asterisk` > /tmp/backtrace-threads.txt
> ...the thread(s) seem to come alive again and I can use "module reload" a few more times until it locks.
