[Dennis Reed (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1674?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12806668#comment-12806668 ] 

Dennis Reed commented on JGRP-1674:
-----------------------------------

Fixed in commit f886837ab31cc944a33ce5fa5d04caa4347db730 on Branch_JGroups_2_6 by resetting the promise in JChannel#connect() before waiting on it.

In master the problem code was rewritten.
There is a similar bug in FLUSH (with worse effects)  https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1682

> There is a race condition in STOP_FLUSH when a node joins the cluster.
> JOINER sends JOIN_REQ to MASTER
> MASTER does a flush on the existing members (does NOT include JOINER)
> MASTER sends JOIN_RSP
> MASTER sends STOP_FLUSH
> JOINER receives JOIN_RSP
> JOINER fetches state, sends START_FLUSH
> JOINER receives STOP_FLUSH from MASTER (does not apply, since JOINER was not part of the original FLUSH)
> onStopFlush never verifies that the current node was part of the FLUSH, and therefore is valid for the current node.
> This STOP_FLUSH corrupts JOINER's FLUSH by resetting all the member variables (and probably unblocking as well).
