Hello,
based on the trap output I think I could figure out what happened there.
You have tcp_children to very low value (1 or so), the problem is not
actually that one, but the fact that the connection to upstream (the
device/app sending the request) was closed after receiving the request
and routing of the reply gets stuck in the way of:
- a reply is received and has to be forwarded
- connection was lost, so Kamailio tries to establish a new one, but
takes time till fails because the upstream is behind nat or so based on
the via header:
Via: SIP/2.0/TLS
10.1.0.4:10002;rport=55229;received=13.94.188.218;branch=z9hG4bK-3336-7f2927bfd703ae907348edff3611bfc9
- the reply is retransmitted and gets to another worker, which tries
to forward it again, but discovers a connection structure for that
destination exists (created by previous reply worker) and now waits for
the connection to be released (or better said, for the mutex on writing
buffer to be unlocked)
- as the second reply waits, there can be other retransmissions of the
reply ending up in other workers stuck on waiting for the mutex of the
connection write buffer
The solution here is to use set_reply_no_connect() -- you can put it
first in request_route block. I think this would be a good addition to
the default configuration file as well, IMO, the sip server should not
connect for sending replies and should do it also for requests that go
behind nat.
Cheers,
Daniel

So i had again the situation. But this time,
incoming udp was
affected. Kamailio was sending out OPTIONS (via dispatcher module) to
a group of asterisk machines
but the 200 OK reply to the OPTIONS where not processed, so the
dispatcher module set all asterisk to inactive, even though they
replied 200 OK
Attached the output of kamctl trap during the situation. Hope there is
any useful in it. Because after "kamctl trap" it was working again
without kamailio restart.
