             Summary: Concurrency problem on write interest
                 Key: DIRMINA-1147
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRMINA-1147
             Project: MINA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Transport
    Affects Versions: 2.1.4
         Environment: AdoptJDK 11
            Reporter: Jonathan Valliere
            Assignee: Jonathan Valliere
             Fix For: 2.2.0


*THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE; I've seen it dozens of times today occurring during an 
event write and the send/write from another thread.*

Write interest is not concurrent and full of issues relating to the 
synchronization between the backlog queue and the atomic flag write interest.  
It is possible to check for a queue to be not full, and add to the queue 
whereas the queue is emptied and write interest is disabled before the 
additional item is added to the queue.

What happens is 2-3 atomic operations occur and cannot/do not check to see 
whether the state changed between the time of assertion and subsequent action.

The scheduledFlush queue also suffers from the same concurrency problem.  
Events may be added to the queue after the scheduledFlush operation has removed 
it from the scheduledFlush queue and after queue is empited causing items to be 
added to the backlog but not trigger the scheduledFlush queue or interest.
