----------------------------------

             Summary: ByteString places too strict a constraint on cache name length
                 Key: ISPN-8798
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-8798
             Project: Infinispan
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 9.2.0.CR2, 9.1.5.Final
            Reporter: Paul Ferraro
            Priority: Blocker


The hibernate 2nd level cache code can easily generate cache names that exceed the byte length restriction enforced by ByteString.  Cache names are generated using the fully qualified class name of the entity, which are user defined, and in the case of WildFly, also includes the deployment name, which can be particularly long for EARs.
Why not instead use https://github.com/infinispan/infinispan/blob/master/commons/src/main/java/org/infinispan/commons/io/UnsignedNumeric.java to marshal/unmarshal the size of the byte[] containing the name?  At worst, this costs an extra byte, but solves the size problem.
