> In Cassandra 4.0/3.11 there are at least two races in
> SSTableReader::GlobalTidy
> One is a get/get race, explicitly handled as an assertion in:
> [http://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/c22accc46458d0a583afcf6a980f731cdcc94465/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/io/sstable/format/SSTableReader.java#L2199-L2204]
> and it looks like "ok, it's a problem, but let's just not fix it"
> The other one is get/tidy race between
> [http://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/c22accc46458d0a583afcf6a980f731cdcc94465/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/io/sstable/format/SSTableReader.java#L2194-L2196]
> and

> The second one can be easily hit by adding a small delay at the beginning of
> `tidy()` method (say, 20ms) and running `LongStreamingTest` (and actually
> such failure is what prompted the investigation of GlobalTidy correctness)
> There was an attempt on `trunk` to fix these two races.
> The details are not clear to me, and it all looks quite weird. I might be
> mistaken, but as far as I can see the relevant changes were introduced in:
> [https://github.com/apache/cassandra/commit/31bea0b0d41e4e81095f0d088094f03db14af490]
> that is piggybacked on a huge change in CASSANDRA-17008, without a separate
> ticket or any sort of qa.
> As far as I can see this attempt changes the first race into a leak, and the
> second race to another race, this time allowing to have multiple GlobalTidy
> objects for the same sstable.
> I'll follow up with PRs for relevant branches etc etc
