> While doing long-term performance testing of our application (~10,000 
> messages/second), an exception is thrown after a few hours of operation. Here 
> is the details of the exception:
> IllegalMonitorStateException: attempt to unlock read lock, not locked by 
> current thread
> Stack trace:

> After a little debugging, I identified a code defect that seems to be the 
> cause of our problem. In class 
> decaf::util::concurrent::locks::ReentrantReadWriteLock, the class member 
> "cachedHoldCounter" is used to optimize performance. However, that member is 
> accessed concurrently by multiple thread, but the modifications of that 
> member are not atomic, which implies that a thread can read a partly updated 
> member (i.e. the count of thread #2 with pointer to thread #1). In that case, 
> lock logic get all messed up, and we end up with strange behavior (eg. 
> infinite waiting for lock). 
> I wrote a unit test to reproduce the problem (see attachment). However, since 
> this is a race condition, it may take a few run to reproduce.
> When I commented cachedHoldCounter-related code from ReentrantReadWriteLock 
> (i.e. always go in ThreadLocal), the problem seems to be gone.
