-------------------------------------

             Summary: Treat check request as a write request which needs to wait for the check txn commit from leader
                 Key: ZOOKEEPER-3472
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-3472
             Project: ZooKeeper
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: server
    Affects Versions: 3.5.5, 3.6.0
            Reporter: Fangmin Lv
            Assignee: Fangmin Lv
             Fix For: 3.6.0


Check op is usually used as a sub op in multi, but from the ZooKeeper server implementation it can also called separately, the learner will forward this request to leader, and the leader will check the version with the given version in the request, and generate a txn (error) in the quorum.
 
This is kind of a heavier sync to make sure when the client check on a learner, it is syncing up to date with leader when the check request is being processed. The learner need to wait for this remote commit before reply to client in FinalRequestProcessor.
 
There is no explicit API exposed for check, from the logic this seems correct and safe to change, but it could leave an issue there if the check API is exposed in the future.
