Robert Stupp commented on CASSANDRA-9954:
-----------------------------------------

bq. Are we going to do this after CASSANDRA-10395?

Yes, that would be the order. But I’d like to prepare both together since 10395 
removes “client timeout warning” functionality that this ticket can bring back. 
In other words: make 10395 RTC and base this on 10395. WDYT?

bq. Do we allow UDFs in writes?

Yes.

bq. can mark the UDFs as deterministic/non-deterministic

No - that’s been removed after that blog post. We might need to bring that back 
with functional indexes (CASSANDRA-7458) as non-deterministic functions would 
be bad for that.

You’re probably right 

bq. reads do UDFs only run at the coordinator?

Yes.

bq. Checking metrics every 16 times is a little bit too often for most loop 
iterations. Maybe make that a property?

Good point. Added {{cassandra.java_udf_check_interval}} for that - now defaults 
to 1000 instead of 16.

Renamed {{JavaUDFByteCodeVerifier.verify}} to {{verifyAndInstrument}}.

Labels are inserted nearly everywhere and are required for loops, conditional 
branches and all that stuff.
You’re right - we should measure the performance impact at least in a micro 
benchmark. I think all we need to know is the performance impact for the UDF 
itself as that’s basically just added. WDYT?

Rebased the branch and pushed it.

> CASSANDRA-9402 introduced a sandbox using a thread-pool to enforce security 
> constraints and to detect "amok UDFs" - i.e. UDFs that essentially never 
> return (e.g. {{while (true)}}.
> Currently the safest way to react on such an "amok UDF" is to _fail-fast_ - 
> to stop the C* daemon since stopping a thread (in Java) is just no solution.
> CASSANDRA-9890 introduced further protection by inspecting the byte-code. The 
> same mechanism can also be used to manipulate the Java-UDF byte-code.
> By manipulating the byte-code I mean to add regular "is-amok-UDF" checks in 
> the compiled code.
> EDIT: These "is-amok-UDF" checks would also work for _UNFENCED_ Java-UDFs.
