--------------------------------
Summary: [Java Broker] BDB HA JE environment close on intruder
detection might block the execution of VHN children tasks thus causing
unecessary delays in shutdown of ReplicatedEnvironmentFacade executors
Key: QPID-6560
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6560
Project: Qpid
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.32
Reporter: Alex Rudyy
Assignee: Alex Rudyy
Fix For: 6.0 [Java]
On intruder detection a task to close VHN children and set VHN state to ERRORED
is scheduled in Broker configuration thread. Immediately after scheduling the
task, ReplicatedEnvironmentFacade.close() is invoked.
ReplicatedEnvironmentFacade executors are shutdown in close method.
If any of ReplicatedEnvironmentFacade executors has a pending work (tasks to
run) and that work needs to be performed in VHN configuration thread or Broker
configuration thread in synchronous manner (blocking
ReplicatedEnvironmentFacade executors threads), the executors shutdown would be
blocked and eventually times out.
Test BDBHAVirtualHostNodeRestTest.testIntruderProtection fails sporadically as
indicated by stack trace below:
{noformat}
junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: Attribute state did not reach expected
value within permitted timeout 5000ms. expected:<ERRORED> but was:<ACTIVE>

{noformat}
The log analysis showed that the issue occurs in the following scenario:
* 2-node cluster is created
* intruder node is connected
* node1 is shutdown by intruder protection
* node2 intruder protection is triggered and task to close VHN children is
scheduled in Broker configuration thread. At the same time STATE event is
issued by JE on transition from REPLICA into UNKNOWN (as majority is lost). The
state change logic is invoked in the ReplicatedEnvironmentFacade StateShange
executor which in turns caused VH close in VHN configuration thread and blocks
until VH close is completed.
* As result, VHN configuration thread will be performing VHN children close
caused by intruder protection, StateChange executor thread will be waiting for
completion of VH close task which is scheduled as a separate task, Broker
configuration thread will be performing REF.close waiting for shutdown of
StateChange executor. When task to close VHN children is complete is schedules
task in broker configuration thread to close configuration store. The latter
can only be performed after intruder protection logic is completed.
* Thus, we have an effective dead lock, when tasks block each other threads.
It seems that REF.close in intruder protection functionality is not only
redundant but harmful as it causes the effective dead lock. The deadlock
resolves by timeout on waiting for a task executor shutdown.
