TestOnlyTaggedPeersCanBeDialed has a race condition: - The test untags ps[2] and waits until ps[0] sees this tag dropped from ps[2] in the netmap. - Later the test tries to dial ps[2] from ps[0] and expects the dial to fail as authorization to dial relies on the presence of the tag, now removed from ps[2]. - However, the authorization layer caches the status used to consult peer tags. When the dial happens before the cache times out, the test fails. - Due to a bug in testcontrol.Server.UpdateNode, which the test uses to remove the tag, netmap updates are not immediately triggered. The test has to wait for the next natural set of netmap updates, which on my machine takes about 22 seconds. As a result, the cache in the authorization layer times out and the test passes. - If one fixes the bug in UpdateNode, then netmap updates happen immediately, the cache is no longer timed out when the dial occurs, and the test fails.
