Mike Adamson commented on CASSANDRA-7439:
-----------------------------------------
I agree but I raised this so that maybe someone could sanity check those places
where it isn't checked because there doesn't seem to be a clear separation
between instances where the return value is null checked and instances where it
isn't checked.
> There are a number of places where
> Gossiper.instance.getEndpointStateForEndpoint is not checked for null

> Key: CASSANDRA-7439
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7439
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Mike Adamson
> Priority: Minor
>
> In most places the getEndpointStateForEndpoint method is null checked but in
> a number of places it isn't.
> Without testing each individual call point it is difficult to tell from the
> context whether the state will be null or not.
> In this case wouldn't it make sense to null every call to this method to
> avoid race conditions and NPEs
