Description

On XBOX GDK 250402 version after HCWebSocketConnectAsync failure(401 error code from http), the HCCleanupAsync creates deadlock and cannot be finished or even terminated. Possible reason that I found in logs is :

[0758][I][16:01:09.365][HTTPCLIENT] WinHttpConnection WinHttp callback statusCode=11
[0758][I][16:01:09.417][HTTPCLIENT] WinHttpConnection WinHttp callback statusCode=21
[0758][I][16:01:09.418][HTTPCLIENT] WinHttpConnection WinHttp callback statusCode=41
[0758][I][16:01:09.421][HTTPCLIENT] WinHttpConnection WinHttp callback statusCode=81
[0758][I][16:01:09.525][HTTPCLIENT] WinHttpConnection WinHttp callback statusCode=321
[0758][I][16:01:09.551][HTTPCLIENT] HCHttpCallPerform [ID 2] [TID 1880l] WINHTTP_CALLBACK_STATUS_SENDREQUEST_COMPLETE
[0758][I][16:01:09.551][HTTPCLIENT] WinHttpConnection WinHttp callback statusCode=641
[0758][I][16:01:09.551][HTTPCLIENT] WinHttpConnection WinHttp callback statusCode=1281
[0758][I][16:01:09.551][HTTPCLIENT] HCHttpCallPerform [ID 2] [TID 1880l] Websocket WINHTTP_CALLBACK_STATUS_HEADERS_AVAILABLE
[0758][E][16:01:09.551][HTTPCLIENT] HCHttpCallPerform [ID 2] [TID 1880l] WinHttpWebSocketCompleteUpgrade errorcode 4317
[0758][I][16:01:09.551][HTTPCLIENT] HCHttpCallResponseSetErrorCode [ID 2]: errorCode=80004005 (800710DD)
[0758][V][16:01:09.551][HTTPCLIENT] WinHttpConnection::StartWinHttpClose, current state=0 transitioning to ConnectionState::WinHttpClosing
[0758][E][16:01:09.551][HTTPCLIENT] WinHttpCloseHandle failed with errorCode=6
[0730][I][16:01:11.418][WEBSOCKET] HC_WEBSOCKET_OBSERVER::~HC_WEBSOCKET_OBSERVER

WinHttpCloseHandle couldn't be cleaned up, so it provokes deadlock.
Logs when I invoke HCCleanupAsync:

[071C][V][16:01:51.833][HTTPCLIENT] HC_PERFORM_ENV::Cleaning up, HTTP=0, WebSocket Connecting=0, WebSocket Connected=0
[071C][V][16:01:51.834][HTTPCLIENT] NetworkState::CleanupAsyncProvider::Begin: HTTP active=0, WebSocket Connecting=0, WebSocket Connected=0
[071C][V][16:01:55.382][HTTPCLIENT] CurlProvider::CleanupAsyncProvider, cleanupTasksRemaining=0

Research direction

Start by reproducing the HCWebSocketConnectAsync 401 failure on XBOX GDK 250402, then trace HCCleanupAsync through the WebSocket cleanup path. Inspect WinHttpConnection::StartWinHttpClose and the WinHttpCloseHandle failure shown in the logs. Done means cleanup completes without deadlocking after the failed connection.
