From 8c06db5e91c7e0a0e9b0a239a4ca125312079a79 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ramgopal Nagaboina Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2026 19:22:38 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] framework: do not double-execute an async job after returning its queue item In executeQueueItem, when persisting the executing MS id fails (the DB-deadlock case the catch block exists for), the queue item is returned to the queue so it can be retried. Execution then fell through to scheduleExecution(job), so the job was dispatched now AND re-dequeued and dispatched again by the heartbeat, running the same job (VM start/deploy, volume create, snapshot, etc.) twice concurrently and defeating the sync queue's serialization. Return after returning the item. --- .../jobs/impl/AsyncJobManagerImpl.java | 5 +- ...yncJobManagerImplExecuteQueueItemTest.java | 70 +++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 73 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) create mode 100644 framework/jobs/src/test/java/org/apache/cloudstack/framework/jobs/impl/AsyncJobManagerImplExecuteQueueItemTest.java diff --git a/framework/jobs/src/main/java/org/apache/cloudstack/framework/jobs/impl/AsyncJobManagerImpl.java b/framework/jobs/src/main/java/org/apache/cloudstack/framework/jobs/impl/AsyncJobManagerImpl.java index b9c9b22d9eaa..11d9ca5fa3c5 100644 --- a/framework/jobs/src/main/java/org/apache/cloudstack/framework/jobs/impl/AsyncJobManagerImpl.java +++ b/framework/jobs/src/main/java/org/apache/cloudstack/framework/jobs/impl/AsyncJobManagerImpl.java @@ -523,7 +523,7 @@ public String obfuscatePassword(String result, boolean hidePassword) { return StringUtils.obfuscatePasswordInJsonLikeString(result); } - private void scheduleExecution(final AsyncJobVO job) { + protected void scheduleExecution(final AsyncJobVO job) { scheduleExecution(job, false); } @@ -701,7 +701,7 @@ private int getAndResetPendingSignals(AsyncJob job) { return signals; } - private void executeQueueItem(SyncQueueItemVO item, boolean fromPreviousSession) { + protected void executeQueueItem(SyncQueueItemVO item, boolean fromPreviousSession) { AsyncJobVO job = _jobDao.findById(item.getContentId()); if (job != null) { if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) { @@ -726,6 +726,7 @@ private void executeQueueItem(SyncQueueItemVO item, boolean fromPreviousSession) } catch (Throwable thr) { logger.error("Unexpected exception while returning job-" + item.getContentId() + " to queue", thr); } + return; } try { diff --git a/framework/jobs/src/test/java/org/apache/cloudstack/framework/jobs/impl/AsyncJobManagerImplExecuteQueueItemTest.java b/framework/jobs/src/test/java/org/apache/cloudstack/framework/jobs/impl/AsyncJobManagerImplExecuteQueueItemTest.java new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..a197d7b4f0a7 --- /dev/null +++ b/framework/jobs/src/test/java/org/apache/cloudstack/framework/jobs/impl/AsyncJobManagerImplExecuteQueueItemTest.java @@ -0,0 +1,70 @@ +// Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one +// or more contributor license agreements.
