[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFCORE-990) Eliminate possible races in determining if a reconnecting server requires reload

Brian Stansberry created WFCORE-990: --------------------------------------- Summary: Eliminate possible races in determining if a reconnecting server requires reload Key: WFCORE-990 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-990 Project: WildFly Core Issue Type: Bug Components: Domain Management Reporter: Brian Stansberry Tracking on the HostController as to whether a disconnected server requires reload is vulnerable to races where the slave HC reconnects to the master and makes its calculations and then further changes come in from the DC before the slave's server(s) have reconnected. Those changes should trigger the server going into reload required. I think the cleanest way to handle this is when the server reconnects instead of replying with a simple boolean as to whether reload required state is needed, the response can be more complex, including, if the HC thinks reload is *not* required, the entire resource tree the HC would currently expect for the server. (I don't expect this to be a trivial task.) The server can then compare that tree to its own. This can be done in a transactional manner, with the server commiting the transaction when its check is completed. This ensures the HC's model controller lock is held throughout, and therefore further changes cannnot come in until the server is fully integrated. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
