-----------------------------------

             Summary: The master crashes when state endpoint is hit during a 
task authorization.
                 Key: MESOS-7735
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-7735
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: master
            Reporter: Michael Park
            Priority: Blocker


With reservation refinement, the construction of {{Resources}} requires 
{{Resource}} objects to have been validated and converted to the 
"post-reservation-refinement" format. Generally speaking, validation and 
conversion are the first steps we take with given {{Resource}} objects prior to 
proceeding. In the master currently, we perform authorization first with 
not-yet-validated, not-yet-converted {{Resource}} objects. During the 
authorization phase, we add tasks with not-yet-validated, not-yet-converted 
resources into {{framework->pendingTasks}} as well as {{slave->pendingTasks}}. 
(https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/master/src/master/master.cpp#L3974-L3999).
 If one hits the state endpoint on the master during this time, we get to 
https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/master/src/master/http.cpp#L278 which 
tries to construct a {{Resources}} with {{taskInfo.resources()}} which is 
not-yet-validated nor converted.

I think the correct fix here is to perform validation / conversion prior to 
authorization. The authorization code currently is written to carefully inspect 
fields in both "pre-reservation-refinement" and "post-reservation-refinement" 
formats. By performing validation / conversion first, the authorization code 
would be simplified, and we're also much less likely to make mistakes such as 
this.
