> When using transactions, a distributed deadlock may occur when a node is joining under these circumstances:
> 1) the new node requests transactions using GET_TRANSACTIONS
> 2) the old node tries to commit a transaction, broadcasting PrepareCommand - in StateTransferIntreceptor it locks the transactionLock in shared way
> 3) the request GET_TRANSACTIONS comes on the new node, the node is waiting for the transactionLock (it requires it exclusively)
> 4) transaction commit on new node is waiting for the commandsLock (requires this in shared way) but it is locked exclusively by the onTopologyUpdate - addTransfer - requestTransactions ( = synchronous GET_TRANSACTIONS).
> Found in some traces, but not required:
> After the transaction commit times out on old node releasing the lock, the GET_TRANSACTION request may continue, but the state transfer itself can also timeout if not set properly longer.
> The transaction commit continues on the new node after the ST times out, until it is found invalid (rolled back).
