Hrishikesh Gadre updated HADOOP-14044:

    Attachment: HADOOP-14044-002.patch

[~xiaochen] Thanks for the feedback. Here is a patch implementing this approach. I verified this patch manually on a real cluster. For this I had to disable Zookeeper watch to ensure that the inconsistency between local cache and the ZK state can be reproduced.

Please take a look and let me have your feedback. Due to concurrency issue, I think it would be difficult to write a unit test for this scenario.

> We are using Hadoop delegation token authentication functionality in Apache Solr. As part of the integration testing, I found following issue with the delegation token cancelation functionality.
> Consider a setup with 2 Solr servers (S1 and S2) which are configured to use delegation token functionality backed by Zookeeper. Now invoke following steps,
> [Step 1] Send a request to S1 to create a delegation token.
>   (Delegation token DT is created successfully)
> [Step 2] Send a request to cancel DT to S2
>   (DT is canceled successfully. client receives HTTP 200 response)
> [Step 3] Send a request to cancel DT to S2 again
>   (DT cancelation fails. client receives HTTP 404 response)
> [Step 4] Send a request to cancel DT to S1
> At this point we get two different responses.
> - DT cancelation fails. client receives HTTP 404 response
> - DT cancelation succeeds. client receives HTTP 200 response
> Also as per the current implementation, each server maintains an in_memory cache of current tokens which is updated using the ZK watch mechanism. e.g. the ZK watch on S1 will ensure that the in_memory cache is synchronized after step 2.
> After investigation, I found the root cause for this behavior is due to the race condition between step 4 and the firing of ZK watch on S1. Whenever the watch fires before the step 4 - we get HTTP 404 response (as expected). When that is not the case - we get HTTP 200 response along with following ERROR message in the log,
> {noformat}
> Attempted to remove a non-existing znode /ZKDTSMTokensRoot/DT_XYZ
> {noformat}
> From client perspective, the server *should* return HTTP 404 error when the cancel request is sent out for an invalid token.
> Ref: Here is the relevant Solr unit test for reference,
