Cluster sync not always done when calling session.refresh(..)
-------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JCR-2786
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2786
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: clustering
            Reporter: Thomas Mueller
            Assignee: Thomas Mueller


Session.refresh(..) is supposed to synchronize cluster changes, but this 
doesn't always happen, specially if the syncDelay is low. The reason is a wrong 
assumption in ClusterNode.sync: The code there to avoid duplicate sync calls 
doesn't always work as expected. The following algorithm is used:

        int count = syncCount;
        syncLock.acquire();
        if (count == syncCount) {
            journalSync();
            syncCount++;
        }
        syncLock.release();

The problem is that the background thread might be at the line "syncCount++" 
when Session.refresh(..) is called, so that the main thread believes 
journalSync was already called and thus doesn't call it.
