Andor Molnar updated ZOOKEEPER-3182:
------------------------------------
Summary: Race condition when follower syncing with leader and starting to
serve requests (was: Race condition when follower syncing with leader and
starting to server requests)
> Race condition when follower syncing with leader and starting to serve
> requests
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ZOOKEEPER-3182
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-3182
> Project: ZooKeeper
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: server
> Affects Versions: 3.6.0
> Reporter: Andor Molnar
> Priority: Critical
>
> This issue is probably introduced by ZOOKEEPER-2024 where 2 seperate queues
> have been implemented in CommitProcessor to improve performance.
> [~abrahamfine] 's analysis is accurate on GitHub:
> https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/pull/300
> He was trying to introduce synchronization between Learner.syncWithLeader()
> and CommitProcessor to wait for in-flight requests to be committed before
> accepting client requests.
> In the affected unit test (testNodeDataChanged) there's a race between
> reconnecting client's setWatches request and updates coming from the leader
> according to the following logs:
> {noformat}

> Abe's approach unfortunately raises the following concerns:
> - modifies CommitProcessor's code which might affect performance and
> correctness ([~shralex] raised on ZOOKEEPER-2807),
> - we experienced deadlocks while testing the patch:
> https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/pull/300
> As a consequence I raised this Jira the capture the experiences and to put
> the unit test on Ignore list, because currenty I'm not sure about whether
> this is a real issue or a non-backward compatible change in 3.6 with the gain
> of a huge performance improvement.
> Either way I don't want this flaky test to influence contributions, so I'll
> mark as Ignored on trunk until the issue is resolved.
