             Summary: Use identifiers in request / response messages to pair responses with the correct requests.
                 Key: MESOS-677
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-677
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Benjamin Mahler
            Assignee: Benjamin Mahler


Currently, we do not include any request identifying information in response messages. As a result, the various components of the system need to be defensive about responses received that were duplicates, or intended for a previous run of the component.

We could simplify the code substantially by including UUIDs or other identifying information to pair requests with responses.

This could be made part of libprocess to hide away the details.

There have been many instances of this, one recent example is: MESOS-676.
