----------------------------------
> Race between WAL segment rollover and concurrent log
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: IGNITE-5772
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-5772
> Project: Ignite
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: cache
> Affects Versions: 2.1
> Reporter: Alexey Goncharuk
> Assignee: Ilya Lantukh
> Fix For: 2.2
>
>
> The WAL log() and close() are synch-ed as follows:
> log: read head, check stop flag, cas head
> close: set stop flag, cas head to fake record.
> This guarantees that after close() is called, there will be no other records
> appended to the closed segment.
> Now consider three threads doing the following operations:
> T1: flush(); T2: rollOver(); T3: log();
> The sequence of events:
> 1) T1 does a CAS of head to FakeRecord
> 2) T3 reads head as FakeRecord, reads stop flag as false
> 3) T2 attempts to rollOver: CAS stop to true; call flushOrWait(null); call
> flush(null); Since the head is an instance of FakeRecord, the flush(null)
> immediately returns false. This thread waits for written bytes and proceeds
> 4) T3 successfully does a CAS of head to non-fake record
> 5) T2 proceeds with rollOver, signals next available and asserts on head.
> The invariant above is broken when T2 does not CAS fake record during
> rollover, which allows T3 to append an entry to the closed segment. The
> solution is to change the code so the CAS is always attempted on close even
> if the current head is already a FakeRecord.
> Alternatively, we can introduce another type of fake record that will seal
> the WAL segment queue.
