-------------------------------------

             Summary: Delayed operations may not be completed when there is 
lock contention
                 Key: KAFKA-6653
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6653
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: core
    Affects Versions: 1.0.1, 0.11.0.2, 1.1.0
            Reporter: Rajini Sivaram
            Assignee: Rajini Sivaram


If there is lock contention while multiple threads check if a delayed operation 
may be completed (e.g. a produce request with acks=-1), only the thread that 
acquires the lock without blocking attempts to complete the operation. This 
change was made to avoid deadlocks under KAFKA-5970. But this leaves a timing 
window when an operation becomes ready to complete after another thread has 
acquired the lock and performed the check for completion, but not yet released 
the lock. In this case, the operation may never be completed and will timeout 
unless there are other operations with the same key. The timeout was observed 
in a failed system test where a produce request timed out, causing the test 
failure.
