             Summary: invalid ipv6 address comparison
                 Key: ZOOKEEPER-3726
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-3726
             Project: ZooKeeper
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: c client
    Affects Versions: 3.5.6
            Reporter: Vladislav Tyulbashev


Zookeeper C Client periodically resolves server names since 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-1355

After dns resolution ip addresses are checked against previous set of 
addresses. However, currently only several bytes are checked (it is assumed, 
that all addresses are ipv4 length bytes).

Case:
1) zookeeper server operates only by ipv6
2) client connects to it by some hostname (zookeeper-1.news.yandex.ru, for 
example)
3) container with zookeeper server dies, new container is up, and 
zookeeper-1.news.yandex.ru now points to new address
4) several bits in ipv6 address are changed
5) zookeeper client ignores changes in address, because of incorrect strcmp 
size and first bytes were equal
6) zookeeper client now can't reconnect to zookeeper without manual 
intervention, because it tries old address

pull request will be available shortly
