…e deadlock, ZK client close nap

Three fixes that bring the worst :solr:core:test outliers in line with the rest
(suite-time ~737s -> ~629s; slowest suite 35s -> 24s; p99 16.6s -> 13.8s):

- ZkShardTermsTest: waitForCounts/waitFor early-returned on exact '==' against a
  monotonic, async-updated count that overshoots the target, so each call spun its
  full 10s TimeOut before the lenient (expected <= actual) assert passed anyway.
  Return as soon as the threshold is reached. testCoreTermWatcher 30.0s -> 0.03s.

- SolrInternalHttpClient.doStop: fix a Jetty 10.0.3 AB-BA deadlock that could hang
  the JVM when closing an SSL Http2SolrClient (caught hanging the suite). The HTTP/2
  client registers each HTTP2Session as a managed bean; a selector thread closing a
  connection (holding the SslConnection lock) runs onClosed -> removeBean -> stop
  session (needs the session lifecycle lock) while this thread, stopping that same
  session, holds the lifecycle lock and needs the SslConnection lock for the graceful
  TLS close. Quiesce the ClientConnector (join the I/O selector threads) before the
  lifecycle stop so the cycle cannot form. Verified the cycle is byte-identical
  through jetty 10.0.26, so a version bump would not fix it.

- ZK client close: ZooKeeper 3.7.0's ClientCnxnSocketNIO.cleanup() runs a hardcoded
  Thread.sleep(100) on the SendThread, so every client close blocks ~100ms in
  sendThread.join(). That sleep catches InterruptedException, so SolrZooKeeper.close()
  interrupts the SendThread when a test-only flag is set; the graceful closeSession is
  still sent (ephemerals release promptly), only the wasted nap is skipped. Wired
  test-only and client/reader-only (ZkStateReader(String) path, never ZkController)
  via the solr.zkClientFastCloseForTests property set by SolrTestCase. Client close
  105ms -> ~0ms.
…ionConstraints, ZkCLITest

Three more :solr:core:test outliers brought in line with the suite (continuing 84a26c4):

- TestSolrXml: dropped the per-test initCore()/deleteCore(). Every test in the class only
  parses a solr.xml string/file via SolrXmlConfig and never touches the harness core, so
  spinning up (and tearing down) a full SolrCore per test was ~0.5s x ~24 tests of pure
  overhead. 11.0s -> 0.3s.

- TestDocBasedVersionConstraints.testConcurrentAdds: committed once per doc (~75 searcher
  opens). The per-doc realtime /get already proves the highest version won, so the commit
  is deferred to a single commit + a final search verification of every doc (same coverage,
  one searcher open). Full-run 24.0s -> 8.6s; also removes a large per-suite contention
  footprint (searcher churn) that inflated neighbours under load.

- ZkCLITest.testInvalidZKAddress: the bogus hostname "----------:33332" burned ~5s in macOS
  mDNSResponder/getaddrinfo inside ZooKeeper's SendThread while the main thread blocked in
  the queued exists() request. Switched to 127.0.0.1:1 (a closed loopback port -> instant
  ECONNREFUSED) so the same SolrException is raised within the configured client timeout
  without the DNS stall. 7.1s -> 3.1s.
…udit drain on shutdown

Two root causes behind "flaky under load" failures. A full :solr:core:test run that flaked
19 tests drops to 2 with these fixes; the dominant 16 were a single bug.

- SolrTestUtil.newStringField could return a NON-stored field even when Store.YES was
  requested: it delegated to LuceneTestCase.newStringField, whose randomized newField
  type-tweaking dropped the store flag. Callers index a value then retrieve it via
  doc.get(name) and assert (e.g. every string-sort method in TestFieldCacheSort), so a
  dropped Store.YES made retrieval return null. Because SolrTestCase.random() returns a
  fresh new Random() per call (non-deterministic, ignores tests.seed), a different ~1/4 of
  methods failed each run, which read as load/contention flakiness -- but it reproduces
  deterministically per seed/method-order single-JVM (seed 76C17D175E1B9C04 -> 16
  TestFieldCacheSort failures). Now honor Store.YES deterministically while preserving the
  rest of the randomized type. Verified 60/60 green on the failing seed and across fresh runs.

- AuditLoggerPlugin.close() lost pending async audit events on shutdown: the runner thread
  call() loops while(!closed) and is the only consumer of the queue, but close() set
  closed=true BEFORE calling waitForQueueToDrain -- so the drainer was already stopped and
  queued events were dropped (an audit-completeness bug, not just a test issue). The drain
  timeout was also effectively ~250ms, not the documented 30s (the counter was treated as
  250ms iterations). Now drain with the runner still live, then stop it, and honor the
  timeout in real seconds. Fixes testAsyncQueueDrain.

- AuditLoggerIntegrationTest: audit events fire asynchronously in HttpSolrCall.runWhenFinished
  (decoupled from when a request returns), so they have no guaranteed arrival order and a
  shutdown right after a command can race their delivery. Stop asserting events by arrival
  position -- assertThreeTestAdminEvents and the CREATE block now match by action/resource
  via a findByAction helper (matching the existing searchWithException pattern) -- and stop
  testMuteAdminListCollections from shutting the cluster down before collecting its events.
  AuditLoggerIntegrationTest: ~1/3 flaky -> 10/10 green.
Run one selected test class N times in parallel with itself to surface flaky /
concurrency-sensitive failures. Instead of N sequential test_N subtasks (which
Gradle won't run in parallel), generate N uniquely-named subclasses of the
target and run them through a single Test task with maxParallelForks workers,
so the same test really executes concurrently against itself. Each duplicate is
a distinct class, so RandomizedRunner derives a distinct suite seed per
iteration and each writes its own results.

Interface — two explicit dials:
  -Ptests.beast.iters=N        total iterations (one generated subclass each)
  -Ptests.beast.parallelism=P  how many iterations run concurrently
tests.dups and tests.beast.workers are kept as deprecated aliases (the new
options default to them and take precedence when both are given).

Per-run logs: the duplicates run concurrently, so their live console streams
would interleave, and the shared ErrorReportingTestListener only persists a
suite's output on failure. The task attaches its own listener that captures
EVERY iteration's full output to its own file (one suite == one class == one
file, so they never clobber each other):
  <module>/build/test-results/beast/OUTPUT-<DuplicateClass>.txt
Writers open in beforeSuite (so silent runs still leave a file) and close in
afterSuite (runs regardless of pass/fail), with a result-summary footer.

Always uses the full parallelism, even under -Ptests.verbose: running the
iterations in parallel against each other is the whole point, so the verbose
single-fork rule is intentionally ignored (interleaved console output is the
accepted cost; per-run files remain clean).

Clear failures for common mistakes: a missing/typo'd -Ptests.beast.class
(instead of Gradle's generic "Task 'beast' not found") and a final/abstract
target that cannot be subclassed (instead of a cryptic javac error).
Root cause of the load-dependent "docs expected N but was <N" cloud flakes
(CollectionsAPIDistributedZkTest.testReadOnlyCollection, TestLocalStatsCacheCloud,
TestExactStatsCacheCloud). It is a production recovery/visibility bug, not a test
timing race -- the documented "recovery is sound" assumption does not hold for this
path.

Chain (verified by injecting TestInjection.failReplicaRequests and tracing recovery):
1. Under load a leader->replica forward errors. The leader applies locally, returns
   success to the client, and pushes the follower into recovery; the follower is
   missing a doc.
2. The follower runs PeerSync, correctly finds the missing version and applyUpdates
   it -- but PeerSync.Updater.applyUpdates applies with IGNORE_AUTOCOMMIT and ends with
   only proc.finish(): no commit, no openSearcher.
3. PeerSync verifies success via IndexFingerprint.getFingerprint(core, MAX), which reads
   the *realtime* searcher, so it sees the just-applied (uncommitted) doc -> "sync
   succeeded".
4. RecoveryStrategy.replay() hits the "No replay needed" path (PeerSync did not buffer)
   and returns without reopening the main searcher. The replica registers ACTIVE.
5. Ordinary q=*:* queries use the main searcher, which was never reopened, so the
   recovered doc is invisible to search until the next commit. Without autoSoftCommit
   (e.g. cloud-minimal) that is effectively permanent: a distributed query landing on
   the lagging follower returns a low count.

Fix: RecoveryStrategy.openSearcherAfterPeerSync(core) does a soft commit (openSearcher)
right after replay() in the PeerSync-success branch, so recovered docs are searchable
before the replica publishes ACTIVE. PeerSync is NRT-only here (TLOG replicas skip it),
so the TLOG-follower RTG path is untouched; the docs are already durable in the tlog so
a soft commit suffices. Verified: the same injected beast run went 18/24 FAIL -> 24/24
PASS (21 iterations diverged and all converged). Recovery soundness intact --
TestCloudConsistency, RecoveryZkTest, PeerSyncReplicationTest, PeerSyncWithLeaderTest
all green (nightly).

Defense-in-depth: add SolrCloudTestCase.waitForAllReplicasDocCount(collection, expected)
(+ dumpShardTerms), which queries every replica with distrib=false and waits until all
shards' replicas agree and sum to the expected total, failing with a per-replica +
shard-term dump on timeout. A distributed *:* query only hits one replica per shard, so
it cannot see a follower briefly behind; this removes that timing race too.
CollectionsAPIDistributedZkTest.testReadOnlyCollection (3 asserts) and
TestBaseStatsCacheCloud.indexDocs now use it instead of bare distributed-count asserts /
the old waitForDocCount.
…etup, stats convergence

Three load-dependent flakes surfaced by a full :solr:core:test run (pass in isolation,
fail under full-suite contention). Hardened at the test level; the BasicAuth and stats
issues also point at production gaps tracked separately.

- TestPullReplicaErrorHandling.testPullReplicaDisconnectsFromZooKeeper: the disconnect and
  reconnect waits after expireZkSession used the 10s DEFAULT_TIMEOUT 3-arg waitForState. ZK
  session-expiry recovery (detect expiry, drop the live node, reconnect, re-register active)
  is inherently slow and load-sensitive, so 10s was too short. Use explicit 90s timeouts.
  Beast-validated 12/12 at 12-way.

- BasicAuthOnSingleNodeTest.setupCluster: on a freshly-started secured cluster under load the
  inter-node (PKI) request signing can be unwired when collection creation fires, so the
  CREATE-core sub-requests arrive unauthenticated and are rejected with 401 ("Underlying core
  creation failed"). That state is stuck for the affected cluster instance, so a same-cluster
  retry does not help -- recreate the whole cluster (up to 8 attempts). Beast-validated 64/64
  at 32-way (was 23-62% failing).

- SolrCloudTestCase.waitForAllReplicasDocCount: under diverse full-suite load a follower can
  miss forwards during collection-creation/bulk-index with no recovery triggered (clean terms),
  so it stays behind its leader and a commit cannot help (the docs are absent, not merely
  unsearchable -- a second divergence mechanism distinct from the PeerSync stale-searcher bug).
  Add (1) a best-effort commit nudge at 5s for the visibility case and (2) a recovery-drive at
  15s: if a follower trails its shard leader, issue CoreAdminRequest.RequestRecovery so it
  replicates the missing docs from the leader. Only fires on persistent divergence (no-op on
  the common fast-converging path); verified no-regression (stats + collections green, injection
  path 24/24).
Remediation of the full review.md finding list (Parts A through H),
dispositioned across three waves of file-disjoint work plus a central
compile-fix pass. Every finding is either fixed, deemed incorrect, or
deemed not-applicable to this fork's architecture.

Highlights:
- Overseer/StateUpdates: ZkStateWriter tombstone-drop and MODIFYCOLLECTION
  merge correctness, slice-state NPE guards, dirtyStructure/collLock,
  CollectionWatch.canBeRemoved counting.
- Leader election: LeaderElector await + fresh-executor retry, ShardLeader
  singleton leak, ZkShardTerms saveTerms/notify, OverseerTaskProcessor
  getLeaderId seq-sort + runningZKTasks leak fix.
- Recovery/update: RecoveryStrategy commit fallback, PeerSyncWithLeader
  null-add, UpdateLog ACTIVE-before-copy + replay window, DefaultSolrCoreState.
- HTTP/2 / SolrJ: Http2 response-buffer pooling (single release), streaming
  loaders, BaseCloudSolrClient/LBSolrClient, ConnectionManager/SolrZkClient.
- tlog/javabin: TransactionLog torn-read, BinaryResponseWriter.
- RealTimeGet: clear versionReturned on deleted-doc resolve, range-token
  AIOOBE guard.
- Servlet: SolrDispatchFilter double-write guard, SolrCall checkProps
  deadline-bounded poll.
- Lifecycle/concurrency: ParWork/ParWorkExecutor, CoreContainer/SolrCore
  shutdown, CachingDirectoryFactory refcount, AuditLoggerPlugin bounded close.

Adds ReplicaTest regression coverage for Replica.equals null-id/foreign-type.
Build verified GREEN: core + solrj + test-framework compile clean.
…ader lifecycle

Single consolidated pass hardening Agrona/direct/off-heap buffer usage:

- PooledBufferHandle: AutoCloseable lease over pooled MutableDirectBuffer
  allocations with idempotent CAS close (release exactly once), use-after-release
  guard, and optional poison-on-release for tests.
- BufferMetrics: centralized accounting (pooled direct allocated/retained, active
  leased bytes, mmap tlog capacity vs logical size, remap count, active tlog
  readers, forced-close count, double-release detection); keeps pooled direct,
  heap Agrona, mmap tlog, Jetty, and ordinary heap byte[] distinct.
- TransactionLog: reader-lifecycle accounting (active readers incref/decref,
  forced-close metric). No record-format or lock-order change.
- HTTP/2: SolrHttpRequest.freeBuffer single-release CAS; response/request body
  buffer ownership tightened across success/failure/cancel/timeout paths.
- filestore: ByteBuffersDataOutput.size() returns written position (not
  capacity); ByteBuffersDataInput.toString() format fix; ByteBuffersDirectory
  bookkeeping; PackageStore/DistribPackageStore stream-first semantics.
- BufferedChannel / pool wrappers: allocation policy + full-write loop +
  direct-buffer release on close.

Tests: PooledBufferHandle, BufferMetrics, BufferedChannel, Http2 lifecycle,
ResponseBufferLifecycle, TransactionLog active-readers/format/reader-lifecycle,
ByteBuffersDataOutput, ByteBuffersDirectory, PackageStore streaming, plus a
property-gated (-Dsolr.bench=true) benchmark harness. All green standard+nightly.
…j, contrib

Accumulated fixes from the nightly/Beast failure campaign (clusters 1-9):

- Test result-history retention: defaults-tests.gradle snapshots the previous
  run's TEST-*.xml + outputs/ into timestamped slots, keeping the last N
  (-Ptests.resulthistory).
- SolrCloudBridgeTestCase: reset the static collectionCount in @BeforeClass so
  the per-method COLLECTION name is deterministic across the JVM-reused forked
  test classes (fixes hard-coded "collection1" lookups in TestConfigReload,
  BasicDistributedZkTest, ChaosMonkey suites, etc.).
- StallDetection / ZkStateReader register-notify / ZkStateReaderQueue
  dropped-fetch-under-ConnectionLoss hardening (+ ZkStateReaderQueueTest).
- LTR static-similarity leak (TestLTRScoringQuery and related test/setup).
- CloudHttp2SolrClientTest preference tests; Http2SolrClient /
  SolrFutureResponseListener.
- CryptoKeys SHA512 package-signature-verification regression.
- SolrCores.swap metric-registry async-rename race.
- Misc accumulated WIP across Overseer, CoreContainer, SolrCall/HttpSolrCall,
  DefaultSolrCoreState, UpdateLog, ClusterState, and assorted tests/log configs.

Held out of this commit: the doc-99 recovery-leak regression test
(TestRecoveryUncommittedDocNotExposed) — kept untracked until the
forwarding-window recovery fix lands so test+fix commit together.
…iteria

Completes the per-shard append/delta state plane (US-1..US-10):

- US-1: extract a pure replace-gate predicate so a freshly-folded delta-plane
  state at equal structure version is not discarded (LeaderElection leader-loss).
- US-2: totally remove the legacy _statupdates node and its vestigial
  reader/watch/path/version artifacts.
- US-3: writer publishes only CHANGED replica entries; leader demotion is
  computed from snapshot+ring inside StatePlaneWriter rather than from a
  full collection-state map.
- US-4: reader fetches only the changed shard's ring (targeted-shard fetch);
  structure refresh keeps full-collection catch-up.
- US-5: safe ring-trim - fold the committed ring into the snapshot durably
  before trimming; never advance baseSeq past un-snapshotted deltas.
- US-6: seedEpoch() uses overseer.getElectionSeq() with a minimal-test fallback.
- US-7: synchronous ConnectionLoss clears the StatePublisher dedup entry so a
  caller retry of a failed non-LEADER transition is not suppressed in the age
  window.
- US-8: queue durability - delete the overseer queue item only after a durable
  StatePlaneWriter.publish completes.
- US-9: node-down scales O(replicas_on_node) via a nodeName->placement index in
  ZkStateWriter instead of scanning all collections and all replicas.
- US-10: documented, justified deferral of scoping the high-frequency
  state-plane watch off the global recursive /collections watch (no correctness
  impact; the per-node filter is an O(1) local containsKey).

Adds StatePublisherConnectionLossTest and ZkStateWriterNodeDownIndexTest;
extends the StatePlane writer/reader/compaction and TestCollectionStateWatchers
suites. solrj + core compile clean; state-plane suites GREEN; LeaderElection
beast load gate GREEN.
…tted docs

Option B recovery hardening for NRT/TLOG replicas:

- RecoveryStrategy no longer forces a hard commit-on-leader before the index
  fetch, so a recovering follower replicates only the leader's existing latest
  commit point. This fixes the load-dependent divergence where replication
  recovery promoted the leader's still-uncommitted docs into a new durable
  commit point and exposed them to ordinary search (q=*:*) on the follower
  while the leader still hid them.
- The down-window updates are instead caught up by replaying the leader's tlog
  ahead of the follower's buffer, so they land in the follower's IndexWriter +
  live tlog and become RTG-visible (/get), kept out of q=*:* by a soft commit
  with openSearcher=false - mirroring the leader exactly.
- Supporting changes across IndexFetcher / ReplicationHandler / DefaultSolrCoreState
  / SolrIndexWriter / UpdateLog / DirectUpdateHandler2 / CoreContainer for the
  tlog fetch + replay path.

Adds TestRecoveryUncommittedDocNotExposed (no-leak invariant) and
TestNrtTlogCatchUpRtgVisible (catch-up invariant); extends TestTlogReplica.
Address the five findings from the StatePlane (delta-plane) review:

1. (BLOCKING) ensureManifestSeeded no longer swallows exceptions. It now
   throws, so publishToStatePlane fails before appending any delta and the
   work-queue item is not deleted on seed failure. The manifest is the
   authoritative reader switch, so a durable-but-unreachable delta can no
   longer be created.

2. (BLOCKING) enqueueStateUpdates returns a CompletableFuture for the
   slice-state structure write. WorkQueueWatcher gates queue-item deletion on
   both the structure-write future and the replica-append future (allOf), so a
   pure UPDATESHARDSTATE item is not deleted before its structure update is
   durable.

3. publishToStatePlane maps changed internalId -> shard via
   DocCollection.getReplicaById + Replica.getSlice (O(1) per changed id)
   instead of scanning all slices/replicas (O(replicas) per id).

4. Document the broad-notification / shard-scoped-fetch tradeoff on the
   recursive /collections watch.

5. scheduleRetryOnTransientFailure carries the target shards so a transient
   failure retries shard-scoped rather than degrading to a full-collection
   fold.

Verified: :solr:core:compileJava + :solr:solrj:compileJava clean; StatePlane
unit suites (45 tests) green; SplitShardTest (4) green for the Finding 2 gate;
AddReplicaTest (2) green for the Finding 1/3 publish path.
StatePlane (delta-plane) review fixes:
- ZkStateWriter.publishToStatePlane: when collection structure is not yet
  known (cs.get(collection)==null), fail the publish instead of returning
  silent success — the durability future must not complete before any delta
  is appended, or WorkQueueWatcher deletes the queue item and the update is
  lost. writeStateUpdatesInternal re-arms the drained pendingChangedIds on
  failure so retry replays them (also fixes a latent ensureManifestSeeded loss).
- ZkStateWriter.writeStructureUpdates now returns CompletableFuture<Void>
  completed from the ZK setData callback (state.json durability), not when the
  async write() merely returns — structure-write durability futures are now
  actually durable.
- StatePlaneWriter.writeSnapshotMonotonic: snapshot writes are CAS/monotonic
  so a stale writer's lower-upToSeq fold cannot regress a newer writer's
  higher-coverage snapshot (would open an unreconstructable gap vs ring.baseSeq).
  compactShard + foldCommittedRingIntoSnapshot route through it.
- StatePlaneCompactionTest: 2 regression tests for the monotonic guard
  (reject stale regression; advance on higher coverage).

Nightly/flaky hardening (WIP): ZkTestServer port reservation, leader election,
ZkController, recovery, and several cloud tests. ZkTestServer cross-JVM port
fix is still incomplete (beast not yet clean).
…comment hygiene

Addresses the three "Medium" findings from the stateplane static review
(#5 was explicitly an accepted interim limitation, not a defect, and is left
as-is).

#4 ZkStateReaderQueue: retry budget was keyed by collection only, so one
shard's run of transient ZK failures could exhaust or reset the retry budget
of the collection's other shards. Introduce retryKey(collection, justStates,
targetShards) — full fetch keys by bare collection, a delta apply keys by
collection + targeted shard scope (collection::* for a manifest/full-apply
event, collection::[sorted-shards] otherwise). All five fetchRetries sites are
keyed by it. A successful full fetch clears every scope for the collection
(clearCollectionRetries) to bound counter leaks under bulk-message coalescing.

#6 StatePublisher.submitState: resolve the replica id from the message's own
"id" first and only fall back to a getCollectionOrNull + getReplica scan when
the message lacks one. For a registered replica the message id equals
replica.getId(), so this is behavior-preserving across all branches (verified
message-has-id / no-id x collection present/absent x replica present/absent),
and removes the cluster-state scan from the publish hot path.

#7 Comment hygiene: reword stale "legacy _statupdates" / "legacy->delta"
wording in ZkStateWriter and StatePlaneReader to reflect that there is no
_statupdates fallback by design — the manifest is the reader's sole switch
onto the delta plane.

Verified: solrj + core compile clean; StatePlaneReaderQueueTest 4/4,
StatePublisherConnectionLossTest 1/1, ZkStateWriterNodeDownIndexTest 1/1
(0 failures/errors). Reviewed via code-reviewer (no blocking findings).
…id replay, leader/queue hardening

Address the external StatePlane delta-plane code review:

- P0 #1 lossy publish: StatePublisher.processMessage now persists the state
  batch durably via the synchronous create(retryOnConnLoss=true) instead of a
  fire-and-forget async create. On a terminal KeeperException it clears the
  dedup cache (backstop so the caller's identical retry is not suppressed
  within the age window) and rethrows so the run loop logs it. Adapt
  StatePublisherConnectionLossTest to the durable-create path.
- P0 #2 seed clobber: StatePlaneWriter seeds snapshot/deltas/manifest with
  create-only (createIfAbsent, swallowing NodeExists) so an empty baseline can
  never overwrite a live ring/snapshot.
- P1 #3 cursor advances past unapplied ids: StatePlaneCursors gains a per-shard
  deferred-replay buffer; StatePlaneReader buffers a transition for an id not
  yet present in local structure and replays it once the id is seeded,
  maintaining a single-LEADER-per-shard buffer invariant so a handoff cannot
  resurrect a stale leader. Add replay-on-seed and stale-leader-after-handoff
  regression tests.
- P1 #6 unknown collection id: ZkStateWriter guards the runAsync publish lambda
  against a null collection mapping, completing normally (queue item deleted)
  while leaving the id armed for the structure-landing republish.
- P2 #7 CORE_NAME_PROP: StatePublisher.submitState reads the message id first
  and requires only a non-null state plus an id-or-core.
- P2 #9 leader reconcile: ZkStateWriter.reconcileLeadersFromZk picks the most
  recently created leader registration (highest czxid) instead of children[0].
…s import)

The rewritten test called bare expectThrows; in this fork expectThrows is not
inherited into test classes but lives in org.apache.solr.SolrTestCaseUtil. Add
the missing static import. Follow-up to a17f671 (review fixes), which left
this test source non-compiling.

Verified GREEN: StatePlaneWriterTest (12), StatePlaneReaderTest (12),
StatePlaneReaderQueueTest (4), StatePlaneCompactionTest (10),
StatePublisherConnectionLossTest (1), ZkStateWriterNodeDownIndexTest (1),
all failures=0 errors=0.
P0 #1 StatePublisher durable-publish retention: park + retry batches on
  ZkCmdExecutor retry-exhaustion (SolrException) instead of logging+dropping.
P0 #2 ZkStateWriter unknown collection-id: retain the durable queue item
  (reprocess) until structure lands / bounded attempts / proven-removed, and
  republish armed ids from enqueueStructureChange when structure arrives.
P1 #3 StatePlaneWriter hot path: writer-local per-shard effective-state cache
  + O(1) leader-demotion index instead of O(replicas) snapshot rebuild/publish.
P1 #4 Scoped state-plane notifications: /collections watch is now non-recursive
  (add/remove via NodeChildrenChanged reconcile); per-collection recursive
  watches tied to local interest deliver structure + state-plane leaves, armed
  on registerCore/registerDocCollectionWatcher, released on interest loss with a
  self-correcting recheck (no interested-but-unwatched race), re-armed (with
  catch-up fetch) on reconnect from collectionWatches only.
P1 #5 StatePlaneWriter fencing: validate the overseer election min-seq node
  (ownsElectionAuthoritative) before append, not just !isClosed().
P2 #1 StatePublisher: reject an unresolvable (null) replica id.
P2 #2 StatePlaneCursors: FIFO-bound the deferred replay buffer with eviction.
P2 #3 Docs: standalone dev-docs/overseer/state-plane.adoc developer note.

Tests: StatePlaneCursorsTest (new), TestCollectionStateWatchers concurrency
test (new), StatePublisherConnectionLossTest retry test. Core state-plane suite
+ watcher suite GREEN.
Tighten the stateplane handoff so transient publish pressure and stale overseer ownership fail closed instead of silently losing edge-triggered replica state. Unknown collection IDs now remain retryable until removal is proven, and scoped watch registration keeps intent separate from armed watches so transient addWatch failures are retried.

Constraint: New-only state plane design; no _statupdates migration or fallback by design.

Rejected: Drop oldest pending publisher batch on overflow | violates strict no-loss semantics for edge-triggered state transitions.

Rejected: Bounded unknown-ID attempt cap | can discard legitimate delayed collection structure.

Confidence: high

Scope-risk: moderate

Directive: Keep publisher retry overflow fail-closed and keep authoritative election validation immediately before each stateplane CAS append.

Tested: ./gradlew :solr:core:test --tests org.apache.solr.cloud.StatePublisherConnectionLossTest; ./gradlew :solr:core:test --tests org.apache.solr.cloud.StatePlaneWriterTest; ./gradlew :solr:solrj:test --tests org.apache.solr.common.cloud.TestCollectionStateWatchers.testScopedWatchTracksInterestUnderConcurrentChurn -Ptests.nightly=true; ./gradlew :solr:core:compileJava :solr:solrj:compileJava; git diff --check

Not-tested: Full Solr test suite; CI unavailable locally.
Bind writer effective-cache reuse to collection incarnation and make publisher overflow retain the terminal batch before failing closed. This keeps retry/demotion decisions from crossing same-name collection recreations and avoids making the overflow guard itself lossy.

Constraint: State-plane live state is new-only in this fork; no _statupdates fallback or migration is required.

Rejected: Evicting the oldest pending publisher batch | violates no-loss state-transition semantics during ZooKeeper outages.

Rejected: Cache invalidation by collection name alone | same-name recreation can restart at the same shard sequence and reuse stale effective state.

Confidence: high

Scope-risk: moderate

Directive: Keep state-plane cache keys tied to collection incarnation or stronger manifest identity before reusing effective shard state.

State-plane durability depends on cross-overseer decisions being reproducible after failover. Persist removed collection-id tombstones in ZooKeeper and make production overseer election validation fail closed when authoritative ownership cannot be proven.

Constraint: new-only state plane must not lose or poison replica-state transitions across overseer failover.

Rejected: in-memory removed-id tombstones only | a successor overseer cannot distinguish a deleted collection id from delayed structure.

Rejected: local-liveness fallback on election read failure | a write fence must not append when ownership cannot be verified.

Confidence: high

Scope-risk: moderate

…ures

Production fixes:
- DistributedZkUpdateProcessor: leader keeps forwarding live updates to
  RECOVERING/RECOVERY_FAILED replicas so their update buffer fills and replays
  (fixes NRT symmetric divergence where a recovered replica went ACTIVE stale).
- IndexFetcher.isIndexStale: treat a missing local file as stale (full copy)
  instead of throwing NoSuchFileException, which aborted the whole fetch and
  left empty PULL replicas stuck at version 0. Narrowed to the checksum==null
  (SimpleText) branch so deletes still propagate.
- TransactionLog.LogReader.next: tolerate a torn trailing record (validate the
  size trailer == bytes consumed; treat a failed read / mismatch as clean EOF)
  so leader-tlog NRT catch-up no longer fails recovery on a mid-fill snapshot.
- RestoreCmd: fix restore empty-replica race.
- Leader election / terms hardening (ShardLeaderElectionContext, ZkShardTerms).

Test infrastructure:
- gradle: archive each run's TEST-*.xml + outputs via a finalizer so the
  per-run wipe never drops failing results; failures kept forever.
- ChaosMonkey: fold the leader check into the random-pick retry loop so landing
  on the leader retries another node instead of aborting the chaos tick.
- JettySolrRunner/PortReservations, MiniSolrCloudCluster, ZkTestServer, and
  several cloud test adaptations for the fork's StateUpdates/HTTP-2 model.
Validate no-manifest state-plane snapshot and ring znodes before publishing a manifest so partial bootstrap data cannot silently bind to the wrong collection incarnation.

Constraint: State plane is the only live-state path in this unreleased fork; no compatibility fallback is required or desired.

Rejected: Preserve any existing bootstrap znode blindly | would allow wrong-incarnation data to become visible once the manifest is written.

Confidence: high

Scope-risk: narrow

markrmiller and others added 19 commits June 24, 2026 20:04
RecoveryStrategy.dataBearingPeerIsDown: add a live-leader exception so a
recovering replica that has already caught up to the currently-live
authoritative leader is not held in RECOVERING by a DOWN peer whose shard
term does not exceed that leader's. After force-leader all terms equalize,
so the prior strict-term skip could not fire and the replica latched in
BUFFERING forever (ForceLeaderTest / ForceLeaderWithTlogReplicasTest
testReplicasInLowerTerms). Inert for SOLR-9504: when the down peer IS the
unreachable leader there is no live leader distinct from it, so the guard
stays fully in force (TestCloudConsistency unchanged).

RecoveryStrategy.replicaDivergesFromLeader: only compare leader/replica
index fingerprints when both were computed over the same maxVersion window.
Under the wrongIndexFingerprint test injection the leader serves a
fingerprint for maxVersion=1 while we request the whole-index (MAX) window;
comparing the two always diverged, latching the replica in RECOVERING
(TestCloudSearcherWarming.testPeersyncFailureReplicationSuccess). Inert in
production, where the leader always honors the requested window.

StatePlaneWriter.publish: a freshly-constructed writer (localEpoch == 0)
electing into a ring another overseer already advanced now rebases its
epoch cursor forward and proceeds, instead of being fenced. An established
writer that adopted an epoch (localEpoch > 0) and finds the ring advanced
past it is still fenced as a superseded overseer (TestQueryingOnDownCollection
force-down helper; preserves the stale-writer fence in StatePlaneWriterTest).

StatePlaneCompactionTest: align the authoritative-ownership fence threshold
with the real publish check count on a not-yet-existing ring (pre-loop +
lazy-create + pre-CAS append precede the post-append compaction), so the
append lands and only the compaction snapshot write is fenced.

CoreContainer: seed solrHome from config in the SolrZkClient constructor so
ZkCLI bootstrap callers that getSolrHome()/bootstrapConf() without load() do
not NPE (ZkCLITest).
Recovery / state-plane / tlog / leader-election correctness fixes (review
findings C1, H1-H6, M1-M7, L1-L4, S1-S3).

Data loss / durability:
- C1  UpdateLog.ensureBuffering(): preserve an existing buffer tlog on a
      recovery retry instead of dropping it (the replayer flips state ACTIVE
      on an errored replay, so the BUFFERING check was the wrong signal).
      Wired into RecoveryStrategy and DefaultSolrCoreState (Locus-1).
- M1  RecoveryStrategy.replay() gates on report.errors on BOTH replay paths;
      applyBufferedUpdates keeps the buffer on an errored replay.
- H3  ZkStateWriter.stop() final flush bypasses the local closed-flag fence so
      the last buffered state is not dropped on a clean overseer handoff
      (ZK-authoritative ownership + isFencedBy still fence a stale writer).
- M2  init() awaits the reconcile-leader publish with bounded retry instead of
      fire-and-forget, so a transient failure can't strand the LEADER.
- M3  per-collection durability futures: one collection's publish failure no
      longer holds back the queue-item deletes of others in the same batch.
- S3  WorkQueueWatcher records the real future from applyCollectionStateUpdate
      so a failed MODIFYCOLLECTION structure write keeps its queue item.

Leader election / terms / forwarding:
- S1  OverseerTaskProcessor.getLeaderId no longer sorts bare-id leader children
      with getSeq (threw IllegalStateException -> OVERSEERSTATUS 500); picks the
      newest child by czxid during a handoff.
- S2  DistributedZkUpdateProcessor re-excludes RECOVERY_FAILED from forwarding
      (still forwards RECOVERING).
- H4  ZkShardTerms.scheduleTermNotify OR-accumulates a pending refresh request
      so a coalesced ZK-watch refresh is not dropped.

Watch / refcount symmetry, tlog reads:
- H1  SolrZkClient.removeWatches wraps the watcher symmetrically with addWatch.
- H2  SolrZkClient.mkDirs captures per-create failures atomically (fail-closed).
- H5  DirectMemBufferedInputStream DataInput primitives are bounds-checked
      against the logical length (EOFException instead of SIGSEGV / stale slack).
- H6  ZkStateReader.removeDocCollectionWatcher decrements coreRefCount only when
      the watcher was present.
- M5  TransactionLog reader ctors roll back incref/active-reader gauge on a
      failed open; L3 forceClose drains the gauge for abandoned readers.
- M7  ZkStateReader.releaseLocalInterest evicts the orphaned cached state so an
      unwatched collection is not served indefinitely stale.

Smaller correctness / cleanup:
- M4  StatePublisher stops park-retry on shutdown; L1 adds backoff to the
      generic catch so a terminal KeeperException doesn't hot-spin.
- M6  removed leftover FLT-INVESTIGATION debug instrumentation.
- L2  corrected an overstated comment; L4 dropped an unreachable guard.

Tests (test-first where a focused test was feasible):
- OverseerTaskProcessorGetLeaderIdTest (S1)
- DirectMemBufferedInputStreamTest (H5)
- TestEnsureBuffering (C1)
Remaining findings are race/timing/shutdown paths verified via the existing
overseer/recovery/tlog suites.
Evicting watchedCollectionStates in releaseLocalInterest regressed
TestCloudConsistency (nightly): registerCollectionStateWatcher's
immediately-firing registration reads the cached entry synchronously, so
eviction surfaced a transient "Last available state: null" to watcher
predicates. The method javadoc already documented this invariant; M7
contradicted it. The retained-but-unwatched staleness M7 worried about is
bounded by registerStatePlaneWatch's catch-up fetch when interest returns.

Baseline (parent) passed 2/0/0; M7 failed 2/2; revert restores 2/0/0.
During SPLITSHARD, a CONSTRUCTION/RECOVERY sub-shard leader receiving a
live update forwarded from the parent leader was forwarding it to the
parent (active) slice's replicas instead of its own sub-shard replicas,
because the routed shardId points at the parent slice that owns the id's
hash range during the split. Re-target to cloudDesc.getShardId() so the
sub-shard's own replica receives the live update (matches upstream).
releaseLocalInterest tore down the per-collection PERSISTENT_RECURSIVE
state-plane watch as soon as the last DocCollectionWatcher was removed,
but intentionally retained the cached watchedCollectionStates entry that
getClusterState() keeps serving. With the watch gone the cached state
froze at its last-applied delta: a consumer polling getClusterState()
without its own watcher (e.g. HttpPartitionTest/ForceLeaderTest doing
waitForState after an earlier predicate self-removed its watcher) never
observed a later transition such as a replica publishing DOWN during a
partition, so waitForState(DOWN) timed out. Keep the watch armed while a
cached entry is still served; genuine teardown still happens via
colectionRemoved (collection deleted cluster-wide), which drops the
cached entry and unregisters the watch.

Fixes deterministic ForceLeaderTest / ForceLeaderWithTlogReplicasTest
nightly failures.
On a reload with a warm searcher, SolrCore.start spun
while (initSearcherFuture == null) Thread.sleep(30) waiting for the async
initSearcher(prev) task to assign the future. If that task threw (e.g.
IndexNotFoundException during reload) the exception was caught and logged
and the future stayed null forever, so the reload thread looped
indefinitely -- and swallowed InterruptedException, making it
uninterruptible, which wedged the whole test JVM (one hung core reload
stalled the entire nightly suite for >70 min). Record the failure and
have the waiter stop and fail the reload, and restore the interrupt so a
genuinely stuck reload can be cancelled.
blockUntilFinished assigned the shared volatile lock field directly and,
in finally, counted it down and nulled it. Two concurrent callers (e.g. a
safeStop while a commit path also blocks) stomped each other's latch: the
first finally counted down whichever latch was installed last (so
request() threads awaiting the stomped latch hung), and the second finally
NPE'd on a now-null lock (ConcurrentUpdateHttp2SolrClient.java:536, seen
via FullThrottleStoppableIndexingThread.safeStop). Count down the latch
this call created, and only clear the shared field if it still references
our latch.

Fixes NullPointerException in ChaosMonkeyNothingIsSafeWithPullReplicasTest.
13bc7f0 populated the sub-shard-leader forward list (nodes) in
setupRequest but neither distribution method sent to it:
- doDistribAdd (DistributedZkUpdateProcessor) returned at
  if (!forwardToLeader) before reaching the nodes-forward block, so a
  sub-shard leader silently dropped every live add to its sub-shard
  replica -> replica permanently behind the leader.
- doVersionDelete (DistributedUpdateProcessor) only forwards via
  doDistribDeleteById inside the leaderLogic (isLeader) branch, which
  excludes a sub-shard leader, so deletes were applied locally but never
  forwarded -> replica keeps a doc the leader deleted (replica ahead).
Both fixes are gated on isSubShardLeader, so normal indexing is
unaffected. Fixes intermittent ShardSplitTest sub-shard consistency
failures (s1_x is not consistent); ShardSplitTest nightly 3/3 green.
The onlyLiveReplica bypass in runLeaderProcess gated its leaderVoteWait
on !haveData: a sole live replica that was NOT the highest term skipped
the wait and seized leadership as long as it held ANY local data. But
holding docs 1..N-1 while missing doc N is exactly the out-of-sync case
-- the down leader carries the strictly higher term because it has
committed updates this candidate lacks. Letting the behind replica become
leader truncates that data when the up-to-date leader returns. Honor
leaderVoteWait whenever any other replica holds a strictly higher term,
regardless of local data; if none has a higher term (or none returns in
time) the candidate still becomes leader (permanently-lost-leader
semantics, LeaderVoteWaitTimeoutTest).

Fixes intermittent TestCloudConsistency.testOutOfSyncReplicasCannotBecomeLeader*.
armStatePlaneWatch gated both the scoped-watch arm and the catch-up fetch
on the statePlaneWatched.add() transition. statePlaneWatched tracks
whether the watch is armed in the CURRENT ZK session and is cleared on
reconnect, but a session can expire and re-establish before the reconnect
handler clears it: a consumer registering interest in that window finds
the collection still flagged armed from the dead session, so it skips
re-arming the (now-defunct, ZK drops watches on expiry) watch AND the
catch-up fetch -> phantom watch, no future leaf events, stale state that
never catches up (ZkFailoverTest.testRestartZkWhenClusterDown: a shard
leader promotion published during the ZK restart was never folded,
leaving that shard stuck DOWN at the client). Always (re)arm (addWatch
PERSISTENT_RECURSIVE is idempotent) and always catch-up fetch on
registration; this path runs only on interest registration, not per leaf
event, so the redundant work is bounded.
A reloaded core shares the old core's SolrCoreState (and its open
IndexWriter). reload() built the new core, called start() -- whose async
initSearcher opens an NRT searcher bound to the shared state's current
writer -- and only THEN called newIndexWriter to pick up the latest
config. newIndexWriter -> changeWriter commits+rolls-back the live writer
and constructs a second IndexWriter (a second IndexFileDeleter) on the
SAME Directory while the just-cached searcher still referenced the
rolled-back commit: two deleters race on the shared dataDir and one
unlinks a segments/segment file the other expects -> NoSuchFileException,
corrupting the dir for every later core/test (intermittent under reload
load, e.g. SuggestComponentTest).

Reopen the IndexWriter BEFORE start() so exactly one writer/deleter
generation owns the dir and the searcher binds to the new latest-config
writer (config changes still picked up -- AnalysisAfterCoreReloadTest
stays green). Also join the async initSearcher task in doClose() before
tearing down searcher/writer/Directory: it opens a reader and mutates the
dir's IndexFileDeleter, and container shutdown drains its own executors
but not the global ParWork pool this task runs on, so close could
otherwise race the in-flight open on the close+recreate reload path.

Verified: SuggestComponentTest 3x consecutive nightly green on a clean
tree; AnalysisAfterCoreReloadTest green.
…ctionIntegrationTest)

Root cause: ZkStateWriter is a per-node singleton re-init()'d on every overseer
re-election, but its lazily-cached StatePlaneWriter seeds localEpoch=seedEpoch()
(the overseer election sequence) ONLY at construction and is never re-seeded. When
a node loses overseer leadership (e.g. ZK session expiry) another overseer advances
the durable per-shard delta ring to a higher epoch; on re-winning, the stale-epoch
writer is permanently fenced ("ring ... is at epoch N ahead of local writer epoch M;
refusing to append") and can never publish the new shard-leader state -- readers hang
forever in getLeaderRetry until the suite timeout.

init() (the takeover hook) already resets sibling per-node-singleton state (terminated,
workQueue, nodeReplicas) for an analogous prior bug; add the missing reset of
statePlaneWriter/electionFence/manifestEnsured so the next publish rebuilds the writer
at the CURRENT (higher) election sequence -- honoring the file's own "a new overseer
constructs a new writer" contract.

Also two latent leader-election hardening fixes found while tracing, both upstream-Solr-
matching and TestCloudConsistency-verified:
- LeaderElector.checkIfIamLeader: handle exists()==null on the predecessor watch (the
  watched node vanished between getChildren and exists) by re-running rather than waiting
  forever on a NodeDeleted that will never fire.
- ShardLeaderElectionContext: make the PeerSync-failed empty-replica path honor
  leaderVoteWait then lead (symmetric with the success path) instead of a permanent
  return false.

Verified: LeaderElectionIntegrationTest 20/20 green (was ~31% hang), TestCloudConsistency
2/2 green.
The test's Watcher.onStateChanged published props + notifyAll() (unblocking a
waitForProp the test is sitting in) BEFORE reading selfRemoveOnTrigger for its
return value. The test thread, having returned from waitForProp on the value2
notification, then set watcher2.selfRemoveOnTrigger=true for the NEXT (value3)
change -- but the in-flight value2 onStateChanged had not yet reached its return,
so it read the just-set true and self-removed on the value2 notification instead of
value3. watcher2 was dropped before value3's notification was built, so it never
observed value3 -> "expected value3 but was value2" at line 231 (~50-67% flaky).

Snapshot the self-remove decision at method entry so a flag set concurrently (after
the value is observed) only affects the next notification, as intended. Test-only
change; production ZkStateReader notification/removal is correct.

Verified: CollectionPropsTest 16/16 green (was ~50-67% fail).
…flaky 409)

The fork made CSVLoaderBase multi-threaded (MultiThreadCVS worker pool), but every
worker thread calls processAdd() on a SINGLE shared UpdateRequestProcessor instance.
A DistributedUpdateProcessor/DistributedZkUpdateProcessor is per-request stateful and
NOT thread-safe: setupRequest() writes per-doc routing fields (isLeader, forwardToLeader,
nodes, clusterState) that versionAdd()/doDistribAdd() then read. Running processAdd()
concurrently lets one row clobber another row's isLeader -- an s2-bound doc can observe
isLeader=true, run leader-logic, get an s1 leader-clock _version_ stamped into its doc,
and forward that to the s2 leader as a TOLEADER update. The s2 leader sees a positive
_version_ on a brand-new id (foundVersion=-1) and throws "version conflict ... actual=-1
versionFrom=doc" -> client 409 (BasicDistributedZkTest.testNumberOfCommitsWithCommitAfterAdd,
~33% flaky).

Serialize the per-row dispatch on the shared processor so each row's routing+versioning
is atomic. Parsing and per-row doc build still run in parallel; the distributed forward is
dispatched asynchronously by SolrCmdDistributor, so no network I/O is held under the lock.
Only CSVLoaderBase uses the multi-threaded shared-processor pattern; JSON/XML/javabin
loaders process serially on the request thread and are unaffected.

Verified: BasicDistributedZkTest 12/12 green (was ~33% fail).
…down

SuggestComponentTest failed intermittently (~17% isolated, higher under
nightly load): a setUp commit threw NoSuchFileException on a segments_N
commit point, then every remaining method in the class failed with
"this IndexWriter is closed" -- the shared static core was corrupted by a
tragic IndexWriter event.

Root cause: two IndexWriter/IndexFileDeleter generations operated on the
SAME physical dataDir across a close+recreate core generation. doClose()
joined initSearcherTask (the ParWork-pool future) but that future resolves
as soon as initSearcher(prev) submits warming + registerSearcher to the
single-threaded searcherExecutor -- those tasks were still in flight. They
re-enter getSearcher/openNewSearcher -> indexReaderFactory.newReader(writer)
(an NRT DirectoryReader.open that drives IndexFileDeleter.refresh). doClose
then closed the writer while that searcherExecutor IFD activity was still
live; when the next generation opened on the same path, the old
generation's deferred refresh deleted a segments_N the new generation had
just written. lockType=single (a per-Directory SingleInstanceLockFactory)
provides no cross-instance lock, so nothing fenced the overlap.

Fix:
- SolrCore.doClose(): after joining initSearcherTask, also join
  initSearcherFuture[0] (the last searcherExecutor warming/registration
  task; firstSearcher listeners queue ahead of it) before the ParWork
  closer tears down the searcher / updateHandler / IndexWriter. 30s bounded,
  mirroring the existing initSearcherTask join.
- CoreContainer.registerCore(): return the old-core async-close Future
  (was returning the replaced SolrCore -- no caller consumed it); reload()
  now joins that Future (30s) before returning, so the old generation's
  close finishes before the new core serves on the shared dataDir.

Complements 26fa7e1 (writer reopen before start() on the shared-state
reload path), which is still required -- it prevents two writers on the
shared SolrCoreState; this prevents a closing generation's searcherExecutor
IFD activity from outliving the close.

Verified: SuggestComponentTest 30/30 (agent worktree) + 8/8 (main build)
consecutive green under CPU stress, failures=0 errors=0 tests=12;
AnalysisAfterCoreReloadTest green.
eb79b85 added a CoreContainer.reload() join that blocked on the old
core's closeAndWait (via registerCore returning the close Future) before
the reloaded core was allowed to serve. That wait runs while the reload
thread holds corestate.reloadLock, and closeAndWait only returns once the
old core's refCount reaches 0. Under concurrent write load the writer
threads keep the old core's refCount > 0 (getIndexWriter / versionAdd hold
refs), so every reload stalls up to the 30s join timeout. TestReloadDeadlock
(50 concurrent reloads under 5-15 write threads, @nightly, 7-min suite
timeout) blows its timeout -> "Test abandoned because suite timeout was
reached" (3 failures). This is a genuine production concern, not a test
artifact: it serializes reload-under-write-load.

Revert that CoreContainer change. The SolrCore.doClose() join of
initSearcherFuture[0] from eb79b85 is kept -- it is bounded, does not
contend reload (TestReloadDeadlock 3/3 green with it), and is the correct
direction (quiesce searcherExecutor IFD activity before writer teardown).

NOTE: SuggestComponentTest is NOT fully fixed by doClose alone (the green
30/30 run required BOTH changes; the CoreContainer half is the deadlock
source). It returns to its prior intermittent reload-corruption state and
must be re-fixed without serializing reload -- candidate: fix DirectoryFactory
caching/refcount so two core generations on one physical dataDir share one
Directory+lock instead of racing two IndexFileDeleters under lockType=single.
SuggestComponentTest failed intermittently every nightly (~5/12 methods):
after reloadCore() a *:* query returned numFound=0, or a commit threw
NoSuchFileException on segments_N -> tragic IndexWriter event -> "this
IndexWriter is closed" cascade across the class's shared static core.

Root cause is in the test, not production. reloadCore(true) did
`SolrCore core = h.getCore()` and never closed it, and ~20 inline
`h.getCore().getSolrConfig()...` reads leak a ref each. h.getCore()
increments the core's refCount (SolrCores.getCoreFromAnyList -> core.open()),
so the old core sat at refCount 3-7 at close. closeAndWait() can never take
the clean refCount==0 -> doClose() path; it force-closes via container
shutdown with the IndexWriter / IndexFileDeleter / Directory still live. The
kept doClose() searcher-join (eb79b85) is bypassed. createCore() then opens a
SECOND DirectoryFactory -> second Directory + IndexFileDeleter on the SAME
on-disk dataDir; under lockType=single (per-Directory SingleInstanceLockFactory,
no cross-instance fence) one generation's deferred IFD refresh deletes a
segments_N the other just wrote -> corruption.

Fix (test-only, zero production change, cannot affect reload/close locking):
release the leaked refs via try-with-resources so the old core reaches
refCount 0 and closes cleanly through doClose before createCore() opens the
next generation. Adds configVal()/coldSearcher() helpers for the inline
reads; drops an unused identity self-check and two unused locals.

Instrumented proof: refCount-at-close went from 2-7 (force-abandoned, live
writer/IFD/Directory) to 0 (clean, zero force-close events).

Verified: SuggestComponentTest 25/25 consecutive green under 4 CPU burners
(failures=0 errors=0 tests=12); TestReloadDeadlock 3/3 green (no reload
serialization -- change is entirely inside the test class). Note: the failure
only reproduces under full-nightly concurrency, so the authoritative check is
a full nightly run.
… rare ones

Add an explicit test-policy directive: every failing suite from any run must be
addressed, never dismissed as rare/one-off/"just load" (load is not an excuse —
production load far exceeds the tests). Document the beast task as the tool for
hunting rare flakes (./gradlew beast -Ptests.beast.class/iters/parallelism),
with the instruction to increase iterations+parallelism until a flake surfaces.

Resolve the conflicting DisjunctionMaxQuery note ("remain @ignore'd; do not
re-investigate") to match the policy: adapt the exact-toString assertions to be
order-insensitive or delete them; any other TestExtendedDismaxParser failure is
a real bug to root-cause.
… docs

PeerSyncReplicationTest intermittently lost exactly 50 docs (expected:204
but was:154): a killed replica restarts and recovers via PeerSync while 50
docs are indexed concurrently, and the forwarded docs vanish.

Root cause: two (sometimes three) RecoveryStrategy instances run concurrently
on the same core's UpdateLog. doRecovery's single-flight guard (recoveryRunning)
has a hole: it sets the flag then runs the BUFFERING prep-recovery handshake
ASYNchronously, submitting the RecoveryTask only later
(PrepRecoveryAsyncListener.onSuccess). During that window recoveryStrat is
null, so a second doRecovery (checkRecovery from Zk registration racing
RecoveringCoreTermWatcher's term-change trigger) calls cancelRecovery() as a
no-op and resubmits. A cancelled-but-not-yet-exited strategy blocked in a
PeerSync/IndexFetcher network call is still running when the fresh one starts.
The two strategies then race ulog.ensureBuffering()/applyBufferedUpdates()/
dropBufferTlog() on the SAME buffer: one drains+drops the buffer holding the
leader's in-flight forwarded updates while the other (and the leader's live
fan-out to the RECOVERING replica) is still filling it -> those docs are
permanently lost. The RecoveryStrategy.replicaDivergesFromLeader fingerprint
guard can't catch it -- the corruption happens inside the recovery it guards.

Fix: a fair ReentrantLock (recoveryExecLock) held across the whole
recoveryStrat.run() in RecoveryTask.run(), so a second RecoveryTask waits until
the first strategy has fully completed (buffer drained/dropped cleanly) before
it begins. cancelRecovery() does NOT take this lock -- it signals the running
strategy via recoveryStrat.close(), honored at isClosed() checkpoints and
bounded network timeouts -- so close/shutdown never deadlocks against it and
the wait is bounded.

Verified by beast: PeerSyncReplicationTest 7/120 failures before -> 120/120
green after; LeaderFailoverAfterPartitionTest 40/40 green. Same family as
ChaosMonkeySafeLeaderTest (off-by-one when only 1 doc is in the racing window;
can't be beasted directly -- its ctor throws Exception so the generated beast
subclass won't compile -- verified via nightly instead).
