> This dead lock is found when trying to replace the MockRatisServer with single server SCMRatisServer in MiniOzoneCluster.
> It can be reproduced by case TestContainerStateMachineFlushDelay#testContainerStateMachineFailures, when replacing the mock ratis server with the real one.
>  
> *The root cause is*
> when close a pipeline, it will first close the open containers of this pipeline, then remove the pipeline. The contention here is:
>  # ContainerManager has committed the log entry that containing updateContainerState, and the StateMachineUpdater is applying this method, waiting for the lock of PipelineManagerV2Impl. Since when a container transitions from open to un-open, it needs to call PipelineManager#removeContainerFromPipeline, thus need the lock of PipelineManagerV2Impl.
>  # In PipelineActionHander, it has acquired the lock of PipelineManagerV2Impl during the call of PipelineManagerV2Impl#removePipeline(), and it is waiting for StateManager#removePipeline() to be committed by raft and applied by StateMachineUpdater.
> thus, ContainerManager occupy StateMachineUpdater, and waiting for the lock of PipelineManager, PipelineActionHander acquire the lock of PipelineManager, and waiting for StateMachineUpdater to apply its raft client request.
>  
> *The solution is*
> We have PipelineManager and PipelineStateManager, ContainerManager and ContainerStateManager, each has its own rw lock.
> Let's discuss about PipelineManager and PipelineStateManager first.
>  
> PipelineStateManager contains the in-memory state and the rocksdb. It use a rw lock to ensure the consistency of the in-memory state and rocksdb. This is done in this PR: [https://github.com/apache/ozone/pull/1676]
> The write request needs acquire the write lock before do modification, and the read request needs acquire the read lock before read. All the write request are from StateMachineUpdater, and the read requests are mainly from foreground request, which means all the modifications are done from ratis.
> For the non-HA code, the rw lock in PipelineManager is the only protection for thread-safety, there is no lock in PipelineStateManager. But for HA code, we have to rely on the rw lock in PipelineStateManager to ensure the thread-safety.
>  
> Since currently most of the lock operations in PipelineManager and PipelineStateManager are duplicated, we can relax the lock in PipelineManager, just use it to ensure that there is at most one on-going ratis operation. Previous logic is acquiring the write lock of PipelineManager and doing raft client request, ratis client requests are serialized, we just follow this logic.
>  
> We have a small drawback, the read request handled by PipelineStateManager may not be able to see the latest update, since there might be one in-flight action. We accept it since:
>  # it won't cause any safety problem.
>  # current code has the issue as well.
>  # This should be our future direction of performance optimization: allow batch and parallel raft client request.
>  
> *P.S.* 
> The analysis is also applicable for ContainerManager and ContainerStateManager.
