Races between schema changes and StorageService operations
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CASSANDRA-2350
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2350
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 0.7.0
            Reporter: Jeffrey Wang


I only tested this on 0.7.0, but it judging by the 0.7.3 code (latest I've 
looked at) the same thing should happen.

The case in particular that I ran into is this: I force a compaction for all 
CFs in a keyspace, and while the compaction is happening I add another CF to 
the keyspace. I get the following exception because the underlying set of CFs 
has changed while being iterated over.

The problem is a little for fundamental than that, though, as I believe any 
schema change of CFs in the keyspace during one of these operations (e.g. 
flush, compaction, etc) have the potential to cause a race. I haven't tried 
this out, but I'm not sure what would happen if the set of CFs to compact was 
acquired and one of them was dropped before it had been compacted.
