Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-4051:
---------------------------------------------
It looks like we could extract/rebase the streaming changes from
CASSANDRA-3112's first patch to solve this well enough for the bulk loader and
BOF.
> Stream sessions can only fail via the FailureDetector

> If for some reason, FileStreamTask itself fails more than the number of retry
> attempts but gossip continues to work, the stream session will never be
> closed. This is unlikely to happen in practice since it requires blocking
> the storage port from new connections but keeping the existing ones, however
> for the bulk loader this is especially problematic since it doesn't have
> access to a failure detector and thus no way of knowing if a session failed.
