> Deadlock in QuorumCnxManager
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: ZOOKEEPER-140
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-140
> Project: Zookeeper
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Reporter: Flavio Paiva Junqueira
> Assignee: Flavio Paiva Junqueira
> Fix For: 3.0.0
>
>
> Frequently the servers deadlock in QuorumCnxManager:initiateConnection on
> s.read(msgBuffer) when reading the challenge from the peer.
> Calls to initiateConnection and receiveConnection are synchronized, so only
> one or the other can be executing at a time. This prevents two connections
> from opening between the same pair of servers.
> However, it seems that this leads to deadlock, as in this scenario:
> {noformat}
> A (initiate --> B)
> B (initiate --> C)
> C (initiate --> A)
> {noformat}
> initiateConnection can only complete when receiveConnection runs on the
> remote peer and answers the challenge. If all servers are blocked in
> initiateConnection, receiveConnection never runs and leader election halts.
