L1 entry added by ST when already invalidated
---------------------------------------------
Key: ISPN-3838
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-3838
Project: Infinispan
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 6.0.0.Final
Reporter: Radim Vansa
Assignee: William Burns
Priority: Critical
Labels: 620
Fix For: 7.0.0.Alpha4, 7.0.0.Final
Non-transactional cache with L1 enabled. Node A is losing ownership of an entry, the
entry is not removed during ST but is going to L1.
1. ST builds the invalidation command, EntryWrapping interceptor starts committing all
the entries
2. Write on primary owner (B) occurs
3. A gets the InvalidateL1Command, removes the ImmortalCacheEntry from data container (as
it does not own the entry anymore)
4. The ST invalidation command commits the MortalCacheEntry with old value, storing it
into the data container.
Result: Outdated value is in L1 cache.
As the entry is not locked during the ST, it can be committed as MortalCacheEntry only if
it was not changed (removed and possibly then cached again with different value).
(I understand that this wouldn't be easy to implement as the check is not to be
executed in perform, but during the actual commit - and atomically in the container.)
