Firestore call setData will not enter completion block after signOut and signIn firebase auth on iOS

Question

In iOS (swift) with Firebase SDK

Using Firebase (4.10.0)

Using FirebaseAuth (4.4.4)

Using FirebaseCore (4.0.16)

Using FirebaseFirestore (0.10.2)

Problem happen when

1. signIn (anonymous or with credential)
2. signOut
3. signIn
4. call FIRDocumentReference.setData then completion block of setData will never called

Problem will not happen if

1. signOut
2. terminate app
3. signIn
4. call FIRDocumentReference.setData everything work fine

import UIKit
import Firebase

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    let mEmail = "[email protected]"
    let mPassword = "xxxxx"
    
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
    }
    
    @IBAction func clickSignIn(_ sender: Any) {
        print("clickSignIn")
        Auth.auth().signIn(withEmail: mEmail, password: mPassword) { (user, error) in
            print("user:", user ?? "no user")
            print("error:", error ?? "no error")
        }
    }

    @IBAction func clickSignOut(_ sender: Any) {
        print("clickSignOut")
        do {
            try Auth.auth().signOut()
        } catch {
            print("can't signOut")
        }
        print(Auth.auth().currentUser ?? "no user")
    }

    @IBAction func clickSetData(_ sender: Any) {
        print("clickSetData")
        let ref = Firestore.firestore().document("tests/test_1")
        let data = ["text": "xxxxx"]
        ref.setData(data, options: SetOptions.merge()) { (e) in
            if (e == nil) {
                print("setData complete")
            } else {
                print("setData error:", e ?? "no error")
            }
        }
    }

}

And sometime it cause this crash too

It was confirmed by google engineers that the issue I've identified is a known bug on the latest iOS SDK version (4.10.0). The good news is that, it was already fixed in the following pull requests: 890, 893. Until the fixes has been publicly released, Google suggest us to temporarily downgrade to version 4.9.0 for now. Any specifics or timeline can't be shared at the moment so please keep an eye out on our release notes for any updates.
