Presently, the wsgi server allows persist connections hence even after
the response is sent to the client, it doesn't close the client socket
connection.
Because of this problem, the green thread is not released back to the pool.
In order to close the client socket connection explicitly after the
response is sent and read successfully by the client, you simply have to
set keepalive to False when you create a wsgi server.
Add a parameter to take advantage of the new(ish) eventlet socket timeout
behaviour. Allows closing idle client connections after a period of
time, eg:
$ time nc localhost 8776
real 1m0.063s
Setting 'client_socket_timeout = 0' means do not timeout.
DocImpact:
Added wsgi_keep_alive option (default=True).
Added client_socket_timeout option (default=0).
Conflicts:
nova/tests/unit/test_wsgi.py
Note: The required unit-tests are manually added to the below path,
as new path for unit-tests is not present in stable/icehouse release.
nova/tests/compute/test_host_api.py
This patch is not 1:1 cherry-pick, I have changed the default value
of client_socket_timeout to 0, as per the policy for changes to
stable branches.

For information about the different compute (hypervisor) drivers supported by Nova, read this page on the wiki:
In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
Developers wishing to work on the OpenStack Nova project should always base their work on the latest Nova code, available from the master GIT repository at:
Developers should also join the discussion on the mailing list, at:
