On the clean install Ubuntu 14.04 with Apache without almost any client load the Apache server with the command "service apache2 reload" itself allocates slots marked with "Gracefully finishing" for which rejects new connections.
For full rejection of new requests is sufficient to perform 4x command "service apache2 reload".
Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
Apache 2.4.7-ubuntu4.4 (mpm_event)
Kernel 2.16.0-30-generic
Reproduce problem:

With logs in apache error log file:

#################################################
My workaround was change to MPM module from "mpm_event" to "mpm_worker". |
[Impact]
* apache2 reload can fill up the scorecard with graceful reastarting
workers to an amount that it is unable to serve more requests.
* Backport fix from upstream to avoid the issue
[Test Case]
* In commend #8 I outlined some steps to fill up the scorecard with
Gracefully stopping processes. But that never triggered the reported
bug of eventually breaking new requests for me (It is still good to
verify some busy tests on this part of the apache code)
-> Therefore one of the reporters of the bug tested the ppa quite a
while on his main machines that formerly were affected by the issue.
-> no clear "do this then X happens" test case steps
[Regression Potential]
* It is a rather complex code change in the mpm event handling.
Only the first change is to code, the other two are for the
documentation to match.
We tested some apache benchmarks to check the effect, but found neither
a positive nor negative impact in general (other than the bug being
resolved). Yet if people rely on very specific behavior of the mpm
handling that might change a bit.
It will change for the good of it, but always remember xkcd.com/1172
TL;DR: IMHO it clearly has a ">none" regression potential on the mpm
event handling
[Other Info]
* Since this is hard to test we had a 2+ week test on the ppa, see
comments c#8 - c#15
* It clearly is a fix for some (e.g. the reporter of the bug), but I'd
understand if the SRU Team would rate it as feature and deny it for an
SRU - depends on the POV, certainly worth to be reviewed at least.
