Edward Ribeiro updated ZOOKEEPER-2439:
--------------------------------------
    Attachment: ZOOKEEPER-2439-WIP.patch

I am attaching a crude and possible buggy stab at a solution.

My idea with this patch is just to *bootstrap* the discussion about possible 
fixes, so *don't rely on it for being complete (what about multiop?), correct 
or comprehensive*, but it passed the {{AsyncSetACLTest}} that Kazuaki kindly 
provided, for what's worth. :)

> The order of asynchronous setACL is not correct.

>
> Within a given client connection, the execution of commands on the ZooKeeper 
> server is always ordered, as both synchronous and asynchronous commands are 
> dispatched through queuePacket (directly or indirectly).
> In other words, Zookeeper guarantees sequential consistency: updates from a 
> client will be applied in the order that they were sent.
> However, the order of asynchronous setACL is not correct on Ubuntu.
> When asynchronous setACL is called BEFORE another API is called, asynchronous 
> setACL is applied AFTER another API.
> For example, if a client calls
> (1) asynchronous setACL to remove all permissions of node "/" and
> (2) synchronous create to create node "/a",
> synchronous create should fail, but it succeeds on Ubuntu.
> (We can see all permissions of node "/" are removed when the client calls 
> getACL to node "/" after (2), so (1) is applied AFTER (2). If we call getACL 
> between (1) and (2), the synchronous case works correctly but the 
> asynchronous case still produces the bug.)
> The attached unit test reproduces this scenario. It fails on Linux Ubuntu but 
> succeeds on Mac OS X. If used on a heavily loaded server on Mac OS, the test 
> sometimes fails as well but only rarely.
