             Fix For: qpid-java-broker-7.1.6


Qpid Broker-j can run out of heap memory due to leaking  deleted LVQ  entries via {{LastValueQueueList#_latestValuesMap}}.

The deleted queue entry can be left in {{LastValueQueueList#_latestValuesMap}} in result of race between enqueing thread and consuming or management thread, where entry is deleted. An LVQ entry is removed from {{LastValueQueueList#_latestValuesMap}}, when {{_latestValueReference}} is set on the entry as part of invocation {{LastValueQueueList#add(...)}}. If {{_latestValueReference}} is not set in result of unfortunate thread scheduling, the LVQ entry might not be removed from the {{LastValueQueueList#_latestValuesMap}} as part of invocation of {{LastValueQueueList$ConflationQueueEntry#onDelete}}.

In some unlucky circumstances the deleted entry can hold a reference to another deleted entry. They can makes a chain of deleted entries, which is referenced from {{LastValueQueueList#_latestValuesMap}}. The latter prevents the Garbage Collector from freeing the memory occupied by the chain of deleted entries.

The solution for this problem seems require adding into {{LastValueQueueList#add(...)}} after setting of {{LastValueQueueList$ConflationQueueEntry#_latestValueReference}}  a call to {{LastValueQueueList$ConflationQueueEntry#onDelete}}, when the entry state is {{DELETED}}.

The reason why deleted LVQ entries remained linked together is not clear yet.
