Dispatcher: incorrect RspFilter impl should not prevent termination of call
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JGRP-1330
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1330
             Project: JGroups
          Issue Type: Feature Request
            Reporter: Bela Ban
            Assignee: Bela Ban
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 3.1


When a RspFilter returns false for isAcceptable() for all responses and needMoreResponses() returns true all the time, then a call would block forever (if timeout=0), or until the timeout kicks in.

This should be prevented; the new behavior would be:

GET_ALL:
- Terminate when the filter indicates it has sufficient responses (needMoreResponses() == false) OR when responses from all members have been received.
- The current behavior requires the RspFilter to keep track of responses and terminate when no suitable responses have been received from all members

GET_FIRST:
- Terminate the call when 1 suitable response has been received, or when uisuitable responses from all members have been received

Of course, both GET_FIRST and GET_ALL are also bounded by the timeout, as it currently the case.

Similar behavior would exist for GET_MAJORITY
