[jira] [Created] (MESOS-8430) Race between operation status updates and agent update

Benjamin Bannier created MESOS-8430:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Race between operation status updates and agent update
                 Key: MESOS-8430
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-8430
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: agent
            Reporter: Benjamin Bannier


Currently, there exists a possible race between operation status updates triggered by a status update manager in the agent and updates to the agent's resources.

Consider a master failover where an agent has a resource provider with an operation which was not terminal. Now let the operation succeed and become terminal in the agent, but have the master failover before it processes the update. After master failover, the new master would learn about the resource provider resources via an `UpdateSlaveMessage`. Simultaneously, a status update manager in the agent could inform the master about the unacknowledged, successful operation. If the operation status update arrives in the master before the `UpdateSlaveMessage`, the operation status update handler could attempt to apply the operation on resources unknown to it, yet. This would likely trigger a `CHECK` failure in a contains check.
