NPE when versioning operations are concurrent
---------------------------------------------

                 Key: JCR-3105
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3105
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jackrabbit-core
            Reporter: Julian Reschke


InternalVersionManagerBase.getParentNode occasionally throws an NPE:

    protected static NodeStateEx getParentNode(NodeStateEx parent, String uuid, 
Name interNT)
            throws RepositoryException {
        NodeStateEx n = parent;
        for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
            Name name = getName(uuid.substring(i * 2, i * 2 + 2));
            if (n.hasNode(name)) {
                n = n.getNode(name, 1);
                assert n != null;
            } else if (interNT != null) {
                n.addNode(name, interNT, null, false);
                n.store();
                n = n.getNode(name, 1);
                assert n != null;
            } else {
                return null;
            }
        }
        return n;
    }

Apparently getNode occasionally returns null due to race conditions.

Changing the code to what's below appears to fix it:



    protected static NodeStateEx getParentNode(NodeStateEx parent, String uuid, 
Name interNT)
            throws RepositoryException {
        NodeStateEx n = parent;
        for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
            Name name = getName(uuid.substring(i * 2, i * 2 + 2));
            NodeStateEx n2 = n.getNode(name, 1);
            if (n2 != null) {
                n = n2;
            } else if (interNT != null) {
                n2 = n.addNode(name, interNT, null, false);
                n.store();
                n = n2;
            } else {
                return null;
            }
        }
        return n;
    }

(but likely moves the race condition somewhere else)
