DO NOT REPLY [Bug 52213] New: Field "org.apache.catalina.tribes.transport.bio.util.FastQueue.enabled" should be volatile.

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52213

             Bug #: 52213
           Summary: Field
                    "org.apache.catalina.tribes.transport.bio.util.FastQue
                    ue.enabled" should be volatile.
           Product: Tomcat 7
           Version: trunk
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
        ReportedBy: reprogrammer@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


The boolean flag
"org.apache.catalina.tribes.transport.bio.util.FastQueue.enabled" may be
read/written by multiple threads concurrently (See
<http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/!svn/bc/1203897/tomcat/trunk/java/org/apache/catalina/tribes/group/interceptors/MessageDispatchInterceptor.java>).
Therefore, accesses to it should be properly synchronized. It is sufficient to
make this boolean flag volatile to protect access to it.

See
<https://www.securecoding.cert.org/confluence/display/java/VNA00-J.+Ensure+visibility+when+accessing+shared+primitive+variables>
for more information about this bug pattern.

Keshmesh (https://keshmesh.cs.illinois.edu/) is an Eclipse plugin that
analyzes the source code of Java programs for common concurrency bug patterns.
We used Keshmesh to detect this concurrency bug pattern.

Please note that the underlying problem is similar to Bug 48235.

Keshmesh <http://keshmesh.cs.illinois.edu/> detected the unprotected flag
"FastQueue.enabled" when we annotated
"org.apache.catalina.tribes.group.interceptors.MessageDispatchInterceptor.run()"
as an entry method.

I made a typo in the URL of Keshmesh the correct URL is
<http://keshmesh.cs.illinois.edu/>.
