[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ISPN-3878) Unhandled failing ST cancel leads to deadlock

Unhandled failing ST cancel leads to deadlock --------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-3878 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-3878 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Bug Components: State transfer Affects Versions: 6.0.1.Final Reporter: Radim Vansa Assignee: Dan Berindei Priority: Critical Two concurrent rebalances can lead to deadlock. Example situation when two rebalances can be executed in parallel is when the coordinator is leaving a cluster; it sends REBALANCE_START and passes away. Then, the new coordinator recovers cluster status and sends REBALANCE_START as well. 1. Node is requesting segments for the old topology, StateConsumerImpl.isTransferThreadRunning is set to true 2. Node waits for StateResponseCommand in SCI: InboundTransferTask.awaitCompletion() 3. New rebalance is started, changing the CH - requested segment is not in the new CH 4. Some ST are canceled, the cancel command is sent and taking a long time 5. StateReponseCommand is received, but in SCI.applyState it is found out that this segment is no longer owned so the task is not completed/cancelled 6. Later, we get TimeoutException from InboundTransferTask.sendCancelCommand, and no more cancellations are executed Result: the inbound transfer thread is stuck and rebalance is never completed.
