             Summary: Inconsistent terminal task state between master and 
re-registering slave
                 Key: MESOS-1388
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1388
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Vinod Kone


The following is a sequence of events that could result in master sending 
TASK_LOST and then TASK_FINISHED for a task to a framework.

--> Master failed over
--> Slaves tries to re-register with Master w/ a running task (T)
--> Master starts re-admission into the registry
--> Task finishes and slave removes it from its map
--> The TASK_FINISHED status update is dropped by master as re-admission is in 
progress
--> Slave retries re-registration (w/o task T) as master is still busy 
re-admitting it and hasn't ACKed the re-registration yet
--> Master finally finishes re-admission and re-adds slave with task T
--> Master gets a duplicate/enqueued re-registration request (w/o task T) that 
results in the master sending TASK_LOST during reconciliation.
--> Master now gets retried TASK_FINISHED update from the slave which it 
forwards to the scheduler.


The crux of the issue is that the master doesn't know about tasks in terminal 
states that belong to a re-registering slave. The right way to fix this issue 
is to have slave re-registering with tasks that have pending terminal updates 
and possibly having ACKs go through the master.
