Martijn Hendriks commented on JCR-798:
--------------------------------------

We have finally found the cause of the CME.

Consider the following scenario: Session A registers an EventListener B which 
uses A to process received events. Session A then logs out, and gets the 
Iterator in the LocalItemStateManager.dispose method. Then another thread 
modifies the repository and triggers the observation mechanism. EventListener B 
receives events, and processes them using Session A. This modifies the cache of 
Session A, and a CME is thrown.

This scenario is caused by the fact that in the SessionImpl.logout the 
Workspace (including ObservationManager) is disposed of after the disposal of 
the SessionItemStateManager. A possible fix would be to swap the order there.

I cannot find in the spec whether this is a valid use case of the JCR. I can 
image, however, that it is because otherwise each EventListener needs to create 
it's own session in order to to something with the events.

Martijn

> Two causes for this exception have been identified:
>  (Taken from an email to the dev-list from Marcel Reutegger):
> > - session A reads some items I
> > - session B transiently removes items in I
> > - session A logs out and starts to iterate over I in  LocalItemStateManager 
> > (LISM)
> > - session B saves changes and removed items are evicted from A's LISM
> > - session A gets concurrent modification exception
> Another scenario is the following:
> - Session A gets the iterator of the values of (the primary cache of) an 
> ItemStateReferenceCache in LocalItemStateManager.dispose.
> - Session B then does something that triggers the CacheManager.
> - The CacheManager then calls resizeAll, and evicts some items from the 
> secondary cache of the ItemStateReferenceCache of which the 
> LocalItemStateManager has a values iterator.
> - The garbage collector then runs and evicts the removed items also from the 
> primary cache, which effectively modifies the set over which is iterated.
