---------------------------------
[~junrao] Ah I would not be able to work on this. Is this an urgent issue?
[~hzxa21] is interested to work on this issue.
> Both read/write access to Log.segments should be protected by lock

> Log.replaceSegments() updates segments in two steps. It first adds new
> segments and then remove old segments. Though this operation is protected by
> a lock, other read access such as Log.logSegments does not grab lock and thus
> these methods may return an inconsistent view of the segments.
> As an example, say Log.replaceSegments() intends to replace segments [0,
> 100), [100, 200) with a new segment [0, 200). In this case if Log.logSegments
> is called right after the new segments are added, the method may return
> segments [0, 200), [100, 200) and messages in the range [100, 200) may be
> duplicated if caller choose to enumerate all messages in all segments
> returned by the method.
> The solution is probably to protect read/write access to Log.segments with
> read/write lock.
