There is a reproducible lockup with delta-sync based multimaster replication. The more masters exist the easier it is to trigger, with 100% reproducibility at 4 masters.

Generally:

Load a database onto a server with no syncprov/accesslog configuration.

Stop slapd

Reconfigure slapd.conf to include syncprov/accesslog overlays, and cn=accesslog DB for changes, and replication agreements with other servers

Configure other servers for syncprov/accesslog, but no database

start slapd on all servers

execute a MOD operation sequentially across the servers (1, 2, 3, 4)

slapd will deadlock on server 3 or 4 100% of the time
