[jira] [Commented] (FLUME-936) MemoryChannel is not thread safe

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-936?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13197422#comment-13197422 ] 

Juhani Connolly commented on FLUME-936:
---------------------------------------

Blocking on 935 makes total sense to me, and as I mentioned there, there was still a couple of things I was concerned in in that. Once that is settled, I will fix up any details left. I'll put together another unit test today.

I'm also including in the fixes I made to flume-889 before(that issue can be cancelled as far as I'm concerned), the ones that prevented data loss on reconfiguration

> The memory channel isn't thread safe as a couple of parallel transactions can commit/rollback each others entries if called in the wrong order.
> I'm attaching a unit test I made that demonstrates it using a cyclicbarrier to force the event order that causes the precondition to fail.
