Merge and Multiplexer have a race issue --------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-665 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-665 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.6, 2.7 Reporter: Vladimir Blagojevic Assigned To: Vladimir Blagojevic Fix For: 2.6.2, 2.7 After introduction of a new MergeTest the following race condition has been observed. Say we have A and B nodes each having one service S. They split and then heal again. Recall that we first install view down the stack and then up the stack. When MergeView travels up the stack to multiplexer we do service view merge consolidation in Multiplexer#handleMergeView. However, MergeView might arrive at node A at time T and at node B at time T+N msec. What happens is that one node installs view sooner than the other one and then this leads to discarding of service ack messages (in NAKACK layer) during service view merge consolidation. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
