[infinispan-dev] Why DistTxInterceptor in use with Hot Rod ?
Hi, I'm looking at this failure http://goo.gl/NQw4h and I'm wondering why "org.infinispan.distribution.RehashInProgressException: Timed out waiting for the transaction lock" is thrown? This is thrown DistTxInterceptor which is added by the InterceptorChainFactory: if (configuration.getCacheMode().isDistributed()) interceptorChain.appendInterceptor(createInterceptor(DistTxInterceptor.class)); else interceptorChain.appendInterceptor(createInterceptor(TxInterceptor.class)); However, this is a Hot Rod test and the cache is not configured with a transaction manager, so is DistTxInterceptor really needed? In fact, why a TxInterceptor if no transaction manager is configured? (this kinda goes back to Mircea's email earlier today about a transactions enabled/disabled flag) Cheers, -- Galder Zamarreño Sr. Software Engineer Infinispan, JBoss Cache ___ infinispan-dev mailing list infinispan-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/infinispan-dev

Re: [infinispan-dev] Why DistTxInterceptor in use with Hot Rod ?
Going back to your original question Galder, the exception is most
likely thrown because of this sequence of events:
0. Given a cluster {A, B}, a key k and a node C joining.
1. Put acquires the "transaction lock" on node A (blocking rehashing)
2. Put acquires lock for key k on node A
3. Rehashing starts on node B, blocking transactions
4. Put tries to acquire transaction lock on node B
Since it's impossible to finish rehashing while the put operation
keeps the transaction lock on node A, the best option was to kill the
put operation by throwing a RehashInProgressException.
I was thinking in the context of transactions when I wrote this code
(see
https://github.com/danberindei/infinispan/commit/6ed94d3b2e184d4a48d4e781db8d404baf5915a3,
this scenario became just a footnote to the generic case with multiple
caches), but the scenario also occurs without transactions. Actually I
renamed it "state transfer lock" and I moved it to a separate
interceptor in my ISPN-1194 branch.
Maybe the locking changes in 5.1 will eliminate this scenario, but
otherwise we could improve the user experience by retrying the command
after the rehashing finishes.

Right, but it shouldn't happen when transactions are off, right?

I'd prefer that, otherwise users are likely to code similar logic which is not
nice.

It will still happen with transactions off, because state transfer
will acquire the state transfer lock in exclusive mode and
WriteCommands will acquire the state transfer lock in shared mode
instead of PrepareCommands with transactions on.
If we don't acquire the state transfer lock than we run the risk of
pushing stale data to other nodes, are you saying that without
transactions enabled this risk is acceptable?

After looking at the scenario again it became clear that step 2. is
not necessary at all and the locking enhancements will not change
anything.
We could change DistributionInterceptor to not hold the state transfer
lock during remote calls, which will allow rehashing to proceed on the
origin. But then the ownership of the keys might change during the
call, so we'll need a retry phase anyway.

Hmmm, at first glance no, it does not look acceptable. Refactoring though, as
you did, is in order though to move it somewhere else, cos clearly it's logic
that's required by both transactional and non-transactional caches.
