Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-3980:
-------------------------------------------

I understood Mike's comment as that we should make sure a livelock wasn't 
detected as a deadlock (false positive) after we make the changes, which means 
we would have to run deadlock detection on a possible livelock situation in 
order to test it. I have problems seeing how changes to the deadlock detection 
algorithm could cause a regression in a test that doesn't exercise that 
algorithm. But I agree that it's good to have this test too. Just shortening 
the deadlock timeout or increasing the time the select threads hold the locks 
would additionally make it test the deadlock detection algorithm, though.

> The attached program TryTimeout.java should detect a deadlock but instead 
> throws a lock timeout exception.  The program has two threads that attempt:
>           
>           threadConnection.setAutoCommit(false);
>           /* set isolation level to repeatable read */
>           
> threadConnection.setTransactionIsolation(Connection.TRANSACTION_REPEATABLE_READ);
>           
>           ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("select * from t where i = 456");
>           while (rs.next());
>           stmt.executeUpdate("update t set i = 456 where i = 456");
>           threadConnection.commit();
> This gives SQLState 40001 (deadlock) with DB2 but a lock timeout with Derby.
