Waiting Job blocks executor causing deadlock

    • Jenkins Version: jenkins-1.598-1.1
      OS: CentOs 6.6 x86_64
      Parameterized Trigger Plugin Version: 2.25
      Nr of Executors: 1

      the job "parent_job" has a param. trigger build-step, which called the job "child_job" and blocks "parent_job" till "child_job" is finished.

      This causes a deadlock, because the one executor is consumed by the "parent_job", although it is just waiting. So the "child_job" will never get an available executor.

      Is it possible to release the executor during the waiting time to make it available for other jobs?
