There was a problem hiding this comment.
That was quite difficult to find. Good thinking for considering the case that led us to finding this!
For a service in steady-state, this should be somewhat hard to hit as it would require a partial DNS failure (for SRV lookup to fail) and then for the grpclb response to be slow (either network or slow server). That will happen, but isn't all that likely.
But if you consider the case of a service enabling gRPC-LB, all of a sudden it only requires the grpclb response to be slow. That is quite scary. We should definitely backport this, potentially to all affected versions (although we'll have to discuss what versions we'll do a release for).

…grpc#8646) Addresses a problem where we initially only resolve addresses to the backends, but not the load balancer and then later resolve addresses to both. In this situation the fallback timer was started during the second instance even if it resulted in the timer later failing as we were already using fallback backends. This change assures that a fallback time is only ever started if we are not already using the fallback backends. This is a follow-up fix to grpc#8253.
