Can we prevent deadlocks and timeouts on ReliableQueue's in Service Fabric? -

we have stateful service in service fabric both runasync method , couple of service calls.

one service calls allows enqueue in reliablequeue

using(itransaction tx = statemanager.createtransaction()) {   await queue.enqueueasync(tx, message);   queuelength = await queue.getcountasync(tx);   await tx.commitasync(); } 

the runasync on other hand tries dequeue things:

using(itransaction tx = statemanager.createtransaction()) {   await queue.trydequeueasync(tx);   queuelength = await queue.getcountasync(tx);   await tx.commitasync(); } 

the getcountasync seems cause deadlocks, because 2 transactions block each other. if switch order: first counting , dequeue/enqueue?

this due fact reliablequeue today strict fifo , allows 1 reader or writer @ time. you're not seeing deadlocks, you're seeing timeouts (please correct me if not case). there's no real way prevent timeouts other to:

• ensure transactions not long lived - longer need , you're blocking other work on queue.
• increase default transaction timeout (the default 4 seconds, can pass in different value)

reordering things shouldn't cause change.
