> We hit really often a deadlock? in org.jboss.stdio.StdioContext$DelegatingPrintStream.println(StdioContext.java:474)
> Even if the "StdioContext" belongs to Jboss-Logging, the problem occurs in our production wildfly installation twice to 4 times a day - all threads are deadlocking while trying to log.debug, log.error, or (sometimes) System.out.println from our application code, and wildfly does not respond anymore...
> The partial stacktrace always is similar to this one:
> {code}
>  "default task-64" prio=10 tid=0x4c539c00 nid=0x5ef9 waiting for monitor entry [0x495e0000]
>    java.lang.Thread.State: BLOCKED (on object monitor)
>         at java.io.PrintStream.println(PrintStream.java:806)
>         - waiting to lock <0x5ee0adf8> (a java.io.PrintStream)
>         at org.jboss.stdio.StdioContext$DelegatingPrintStream.println(StdioContext.java:474)
>         at jsp.communications.statuschange.selectStatus_jsp._jspService(selectStatus_jsp.java:413)
>         at org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:69)
>         at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:790)
>         at io.undertow.servlet.handlers.ServletHandler.handleRequest(ServletHandler.java:85)
>         at io.undertow.servlet.handlers.FilterHandler.handleRequest(FilterHandler.java:82)
> {code}
> While investigating the StdioContext - class, i really wondered whether the used "locking/checking by using a threadlocal" could have worked in a multi-threaded environment (it should have the very same problems as every "double checking" algorithm without proper synchronization).
> If all threads are hanging in this particular lock, only a full wildfly-restart recovers in our case.
> My preferred solution would be a rework of the used org.jboss.stdio. classes, as the used idioms of ThreadLocals for reentrant-checks are at least highly unusual?
