             Summary: Libprocess runs long timers right ahead
                 Key: MESOS-7661
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-7661
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: libprocess
            Reporter: Gastón Kleiman


{{process::delay()}} will schedule a method to be run right ahead when called with a veeeery long {{Duration}}.

This happens because [{{Timeout}} tries to add two long durations|https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/13cae29e7832d8bb879c68847ad0df449d227f17/3rdparty/libprocess/include/process/timeout.hpp#L33-L38], leading to an [integer overflow in {{Duration}}|https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/13cae29e7832d8bb879c68847ad0df449d227f17/3rdparty/stout/include/stout/duration.hpp#L116].

I'd expect libprocess to either:

  1. Never run the method.
  2. Schedule it in the longest possible {{Duration}}.

{{Duration::operator+=()}} should probably also handle integer overflows differently. If an addition leads to an integer overflow, it might make more sense to return {{Duration::max()}} than a negative duration.
