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

vishal comment on list:


I might be wrong here, but let me try to chip in my few cents.

I think the problem is in LearnerHandler.java at the leader fo this
Follower.

            /* see what other packets from the proposal
             * and tobeapplied queues need to be sent
             * and then decide if we can just send a DIFF
             * or we actually need to send the whole snapshot
             */
            long leaderLastZxid = leader.startForwarding(this, updates);
---> this leaderLastZxid returned is probably incorrect.
            // a special case when both the ids are the same
            if (peerLastZxid == leaderLastZxid) {
                packetToSend = Leader.DIFF;
                zxidToSend = leaderLastZxid;
            }

            QuorumPacket newLeaderQP = new QuorumPacket(Leader.NEWLEADER,
                    leaderLastZxid, null, null);
            oa.writeRecord(newLeaderQP, "packet");
            bufferedOutput.flush()


> zookeeper servers should commit the new leader txn to their logs.

>          Components: server
>    Affects Versions: 3.1.0
>            Reporter: Mahadev konar
>            Assignee: Mahadev konar
>            Priority: Blocker

>
> currently the zookeeper followers do not commit the new leader election. This 
> will cause problems in a failure scenarios with a follower acking to the same 
> leader txn id twice, which might be two different intermittent leaders and 
> allowing them to propose two different txn's of the same zxid.
