UNICAST: messages not retransmitted on load
-------------------------------------------
Key: JGRP-486
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-486
Project: JGroups
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Bela Ban
Assigned To: Bela Ban
Fix For: 2.4.1 SP3, 2.5
To reproduce, run JBento in the ATL lab with 6 instances, then run Brian's stress test
(3 instances with a total of 3000 threads).
This only occurs with buddy replication (which uses UNICAST), it doesn't occur with
NAKACK. Also, it doesn't occur with TCP as transport (so that's a workaround).
Let's say we have buddies A and B.
After some time, B's UNICAST AckReceiverWindow for A shows next_to_remove=80265,
msgs=[80266-82139]. This means that we expect 80265 as next seqno, however the lowest
seqno we've received is 80266. The window gets new messages every 5 secs (credit
requests from A), and adds them. But it cannot deliver them as it hasn't received
80265 yet !
A's UNICAST AckSenderWindow for B shows 1 message in the retransmission queue: 80265.
The stack trace shows that the timer thread is still running (waiting for tasks to
execute), but for some reason, 80265 is never retransmitted to B ! We don't see a
retransmit() method in the TRACE logs (we do see the other UNICAST methods invoked, e.g.
DATA and ACK traces).
