Asterisk Task distribution per cores & a full Recv-Q 5060 socket

Hi,

I’m using an Asterisk 15.1.5 installed on CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708. Among others, I included Channels REST API and calls setup is done by an ARI application.

Occasionally I notice a full Recv-Q on 5060 socket used by asterisk and then asterisk stop processing calls because sip packet are no more delivered to the asterisk process.

Asterisk still process RTP because it uses another udp sockets.

The machine has 4 cores with 6 RAM and I generate a maximum of 150 calls without transcoding.

# netstat -tunlp|grep asterisk

But there is a strong behaviour when this happens and I don’t understand the raison; the tasks distribution per cores is broken and all tasks are going to 1 core instead of 4.
After an asterisk service restart the distribution is fixed and what I could not understand is how asterisk change the Task-flow and how this could happen ?
