[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-7585) ConcurrentLFUCache throws NoSuchElementException under a write-heavy load

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7585?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14556707#comment-14556707 ] 

Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-7585:
------------------------------------

The LFU cache implementation is my code, but I didn't write it from scratch.  I started with the existing LRU code.  Now that I look at ConcurrentLRUCache, the markAndSweep method there seems to be quite a bit different, and I can't remember what I actually did or whether the differences came afterwards.

I tried adding just the test so I could see if the test fails without the patch.  I did so on branch_5x, which is how I discovered that the test uses a lambda expression -- it won't compile on branch_5x because the build is targeted for a 1.7 compile version, and lamba expressions require 1.8.  Since I haven't yet wrestled with lambda expressions, I have no idea what they actually do.  Can you rewrite the test so it's compatible with Java 7?

> Under a write-heavy load {{ConcurrentLFUCache}} throws {{NoSuchElementException}}. The problem lies within {{org.apache.solr.util.ConcurrentLFUCache#put}} method, which allows for a race condition between the check and the call to {{markAndSweep}} method. Despite that a thread must acquire a lock to perform sweeping, it's still possible that multiple threads successfully detected a need for calling markAndSweep. If they execute it sequentially, subsequent runs will fail with {{NoSuchElementException}}.
