As of today, in the trunk, we already have 4.0.1 -> 4.0.2 version-specific
[logic|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/cql3/QueryProcessor.java#L803];
please see the "else" portion.
{code:java}
if (useNewPreparedStatementBehaviour)
{
if (cachedWithoutKeyspace.fullyQualified) // For fully
qualified statements, we always skip keyspace to avoid digest switching
return createResultMessage(hashWithoutKeyspace,
cachedWithoutKeyspace); if (clientState.getRawKeyspace() != null
&& !cachedWithKeyspace.fullyQualified) // For non-fully qualified statements,
we always include keyspace to avoid ambiguity
return createResultMessage(hashWithKeyspace,
cachedWithKeyspace); }
else // legacy caches, pre-CASSANDRA-15252 behaviour
{
return createResultMessage(hashWithKeyspace,
cachedWithKeyspace);
} {code}
This eviction logic became necessary for 4.0.1 -> 4.0.2, and is not needed
afterwards. Therefore, the proposed PR on _trunk_ removes the "eviction" logic
entirely.
And we can selectively decide till what version we want to land the proposed PR
- I propose to land it on trunk and 5.0, maybe 4.1, but not land on 4.x.

I agree that this logic reduces the possibility of a race, but it does not
eliminate it. The point I am trying to make is not to keep unnecessary
code/logic that is only needed for the transition from version 4.0.1 to 4.0.2.
WDYT?

> The changes in the
> [QueryProcessor#prepare|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blame/cassandra-4.0.2/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/cql3/QueryProcessor.java#L575-L638]
> method that were introduced in versions *4.0.2* and *3.11.12* can cause a
> race condition between two threads trying to concurrently prepare the same
> statement. This race condition can cause removing of a prepared statement
> from the cache, after one of the threads has received the result of the
> prepare and eventually uses MD5Digest to call
> [QueryProcessor#getPrepared|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blame/cassandra-4.0.2/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/cql3/QueryProcessor.java#L212-L215].
> The race condition looks like this:
> * Thread1 enters _prepare_ method and resolves _safeToReturnCached_ as false
> * Thread1 executes eviction of hashes
> * Thread2 enters _prepare_ method and resolves _safeToReturnCached_ as false
> * Thread1 prepares the statement and caches it
> * Thread1 returns the result of the prepare
> * Thread2 executes eviction of hashes
> * Thread1 tries to execute the prepared statement with the received
> MD5Digest, but statement is not in the cache as it was evicted by Thread2
> I tried to reproduce this by using a Java driver, but hitting this case from
> a client side is highly unlikely and I can not simulate the needed race
> condition. However, we can easily reproduce this in Stargate (details
> [here|https://github.com/stargate/stargate/pull/1647]), as it's closer to
> QueryProcessor.
> Reproducing this in a unit test is fairly easy. I am happy to showcase this
> if needed.
> Note that the issue can occur only when safeToReturnCached is resolved as
> false.
