Add cross-thread deadlock regression test for #12472

[gnodet]

Summary

• Adds regression tests for the cross-thread deadlock in AbstractRequestCache that caused Maven 4.0.0-rc-5 to hang indefinitely on 24 out of 966 tested Apache projects (#12472)
• The root cause was a deadlock when two threads both called requests() (batch) with overlapping keys through an equals-based cache (SoftIdentityMap), sharing the same CachingSupplier instance. Thread B would wait on Thread A's IdentityHashMap via the old individualSupplier, but the identity-based lookup could never match Thread B's request references, creating a permanent deadlock.
• The fix in c6de104 replaced the wait-on-map pattern with CachingSupplier.complete() + ThreadLocal re-entrancy guard. These tests ensure the fix cannot regress.

New tests

Test	Scenario
testConcurrentBatchRequestsWithSharedKeyDoNotDeadlock	Two threads simultaneously execute batch requests() with overlapping keys, using a CyclicBarrier to force concurrent execution inside the batch supplier
testSequentialBatchRequestsWithSharedKeyReuseResult	Sequential batch calls with shared keys correctly reuse cached results without redundant resolution

Test plan

• All 10 AbstractRequestCacheTest tests pass (including 2 new ones)
• Checkstyle passes
• CI build succeeds

AI Review — PR #12478

Verdict: ✅ LGTM (own PR, posting as COMMENT)

Summary: This PR adds two well-designed regression tests for the cross-thread deadlock that caused Maven 4.0.0-rc-5 to hang on 24 out of 966 tested Apache projects (#12472). The concurrent test correctly reproduces the exact deadlock scenario using a CyclicBarrier to force simultaneous execution, and the sequential test validates cache reuse. Both tests are thoughtfully documented, follow existing patterns, and CI passes green. This is a high-quality, test-only PR with no concerns that would block merge.

Findings

Low — Assertion precision in sequential test
AbstractRequestCacheTest.java — testSequentialBatchRequestsWithSharedKeyReuseResult

The test asserts supplierCallCount == 2 to prove cache reuse, but this alone doesn't prove the second invocation only received [onlyB]. Capturing the request list passed to the second supplier call would make the assertion more precise and the test more self-documenting about what "reuse" means. Consider:

List<List<TestRequest>> capturedCalls = new ArrayList<>();
Function<List<TestRequest>, List<TestResult>> batchSupplier = reqs -> {
    supplierCallCount.incrementAndGet();
    capturedCalls.add(List.copyOf(reqs));
    return reqs.stream().map(TestResult::new).toList();
};
// after both calls:
assertEquals(List.of(reqOnlyB), capturedCalls.get(1)); // "shared" was cached

What I Appreciate

• The Javadoc on testConcurrentBatchRequestsWithSharedKeyDoNotDeadlock is exceptional — tells the complete story: what the old bug was, why it happened, what the fix was, and how this test catches a regression. Gold standard for regression test documentation.
• The CyclicBarrier + timeout pattern is the most reliable approach for testing concurrency bugs — maximizes the window for deadlock while providing clear, deterministic failure signals.
• The test pair covers both timing scenarios: concurrent execution and sequential with cache reuse.

No concerns that would block merge. 🚀

I tried to verify this PR empirically, and I think the two new tests don't actually guard against #12472:

Method: checked out a pre-fix tree (AbstractRequestCache still with the old individualSupplier wait-on-map pattern, i.e. before c6de104) and ran the exact tests from this PR against it.

Test	pre-fix	PR head
testConcurrentBatchRequestsWithSharedKeyDoNotDeadlock / testSequentialBatchRequestsWithSharedKeyReuseResult	pass (4/4 runs, ~0.5s — no hang)	pass
variant with mutating equals()/hashCode() (below)	deadlock (10s timeout)	pass (1.5s)

So the pure identity-mismatch scenario as constructed here doesn't deadlock pre-fix. The ingredient that actually reproduces the #12472 hang is a shared key whose equals()/hashCode() change during batch resolution (mirroring mutable RequestTrace data in real requests): pre-fix, thread B waits on thread A's equals-based map for a key that no longer matches — forever. Good news: the variant passes on this PR's head, so the c6de104 fix itself holds; it's only the regression guard that doesn't bite.

Suggest replacing (or complementing) the concurrent test with this variant:

/**
 * Variant of the #12472 regression scenario where the shared request's
 * equals()/hashCode() change during batch resolution (mirroring mutable
 * RequestTrace data in real requests). Pre-fix, thread B waits on thread A's
 * equals-based nonCachedResults map for a key that no longer matches — forever.

@Test
void testConcurrentBatchRequestsWithMutatingSharedKeyDoNotDeadlock() throws Exception {
    GenericCachingTestRequestCache cachingCache = new GenericCachingTestRequestCache();

    MutableHashCodeRequest reqOnlyA = new MutableHashCodeRequest("onlyA", "trace");
    MutableHashCodeRequest reqOnlyB = new MutableHashCodeRequest("onlyB", "trace");
    MutableHashCodeRequest sharedByA = new MutableHashCodeRequest("shared", "trace");
    MutableHashCodeRequest sharedByB = new MutableHashCodeRequest("shared", "trace");

    CountDownLatch aInBatch = new CountDownLatch(1);

        aInBatch.countDown();
        try {
            Thread.sleep(1500);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
        }
        for (MutableHashCodeRequest r : reqs) {
            r.setTraceData(r.getTraceData() + "-A");
        }

    };

    Function<List<MutableHashCodeRequest>, List<MutableHashCodeResult>> supplierB = reqs -> {
        for (MutableHashCodeRequest r : reqs) {

        }
        return reqs.stream().map(MutableHashCodeResult::new).toList();
    };

    ExecutorService executor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(2);
    try {
        Future<List<MutableHashCodeResult>> futureA =
                executor.submit(() -> cachingCache.requests(List.of(reqOnlyA, sharedByA), supplierA));
        assertTrue(aInBatch.await(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS), "Thread A should have entered its batch supplier");
        Future<List<MutableHashCodeResult>> futureB =
                executor.submit(() -> cachingCache.requests(List.of(reqOnlyB, sharedByB), supplierB));

        List<MutableHashCodeResult> resultsA = futureA.get(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
        List<MutableHashCodeResult> resultsB = futureB.get(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

        assertEquals(2, resultsA.size());
        assertEquals(2, resultsB.size());
    } catch (TimeoutException e) {
        throw new AssertionError(
                "Cross-thread deadlock detected: batch requests() with a shared key whose "
                        + "equals()/hashCode() mutate during resolution did not complete (#12472)",
                e);
    } finally {
        executor.shutdownNow();
    }
}

It needs two small helpers (a MutableHashCodeRequest whose hashCode() includes the mutable trace data, and an equals-based generic test cache). Offer: we can push the complete, verified change (test + helpers) directly to this branch — just say the word.
