> Key: ASTERISK-30258
> URL: https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-30258
> Project: Asterisk
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: None
> Components: Core/Dial
> Affects Versions: 18.8.0
> Reporter: Frederic LE FOLL
> Assignee: Asterisk Team
>
> A race condition may occur in ast_dial_join() function (Dialing API: Cancel async thread), if caller cancels its call while a called party has just answered but has not yet started running its application.
> This was detected with Page() application, calling approx 20 called parties with auto-answer, and caller almost immediately canceling its call (e.g. within 10 to 50 milliseconds).
> Called party that has answered just before caller hangup:
> - has not yet the is_running_app flag up, thus ast_dial_join() does not do Soft Hangup,
> - but has left the waitfor loop, thus pthread_kill() does not have the expected effect.
> Observation: when this race condition occurs for Page application, then :
> - called parties (with one ast_dial_run() per called party) do not get cancelled, they start executing the application (ConfBridge for Page) and never get kicked out, because caller never got connected to ConfBridge,
> - caller Channel gets stuck in ast_dial_join() because pthread_join(thread, NULL) never ends, except if all called devices hangup.
> This was seen with Asterisk 18.6 but it should be reproductible with other versions, since ast_dial_join() has not changed in recent versions.
