---------------------------------
Summary: Mixing sync and async commands results in missing locking on backup
owners
Key: ISPN-5723
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-5723
Project: Infinispan
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 8.0.0.Final
Reporter: Radim Vansa
In non-tx synchronous cache, locking on backup owners relies on having lock on primary
owner held while the command is invoked on backup owner.
In non-tx asynchronous cache, the order in which updates are applied relies again on
primary owner, but then the updates to backup owners are propagated as ordered.
When you mix it using FORCE_ASYNCHRONOUS flag, it's broken, e.g. in synchronous cache,
you send the command to primary owner (that's fine), but then you replicate it to
backups without the lock being held. That update can come in different order and even
concurrently with synchronous update, and on backup owner the lock is not acquired. This
can be problematic especially for conditional updates.
