Motivation

Background: the normal steps of adding an entry

  • Gains BKC's IO thread
  • Triggers the callback after gaining the IO thread
    • Write data to servers
  • Triggers PendingAddOp.writeComplete after receiving the response from BK servers.
  • Triggers all succeed callbacks in the pending queue

Background: the steps of disconnection

  • Gains BKC's IO thread
  • Triggers a failed callback after gaining the IO thread
    • Triggers a failed PendingAddOp.writeComplete. You can reproduce this flow by the new test testAddEntriesCallbackWithBKClientThread
    • (Highlight) If the writing is already complete, this process will also trigger all successful callbacks in the pending queue even if the current writing is failed[code-1]

Issue-1: write stuck due to pending add callback by multiple threads

  • Settings
    • Ensembles: 3
    • WriteQuoram: 3
    • AckQuoram: 2
steps write entries client->BK1 client->BK2 client-> BK3
1 write BKs
2 start writing start writing start writing
3 write success
ack: 1/3		 write success
ack: 2/3
4 mark the writing as complete since ack quorum is 2/3
5 connected and disconnected
6 Triggers a failed PendingAddOp.writeComplete
8 thread: bookkeeper workers thread: client-server io
7 Trigger all succeed callbacks in the pending queue Trigger all succeed callbacks in the pending queue[code-1]

Since there are multiple threads that will trigger all successful callbacks in the pending queue, it may cause the following race condition[code-2]

  • BTW, the thread-1 and thread-2 may be triggered by different PendingAddOps
steps thread-1 thread-2
1 peek pending addOp from the queue peek pending addOp from the queue
2 check it is the first item: success check it is the first item: success
3 call queue.pop call queue.pop
4 Issue: the second OP will never get a callback triggering

[1] code link: https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper/blob/master/bookkeeper-server/src/main/java/org/apache/bookkeeper/client/PendingAddOp.java#L307

// PendingAddOp.writeComplete
public synchronized void writeComplete(int rc, long ledgerId, long entryId, BookieId addr, Object ctx) {
        if (completed) {
            sendAddSuccessCallbacks();
            maybeRecycle();
            return;
}

[2] code-link: https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper/blob/master/bookkeeper-server/src/main/java/org/apache/bookkeeper/client/LedgerHandle.java#L2092-L2124

    // LedgerHandle.sendAddSuccessCallbacks
    void sendAddSuccessCallbacks() {
        while ((pendingAddOp = pendingAddOps.peek()) != null && !changingEnsemble) {
            if (!pendingAddOp.completed) {
                return;
            }
            pendingAddOps.remove();
            explicitLacFlushPolicy.updatePiggyBackedLac(lastAddConfirmed);
            pendingAddsSequenceHead = pendingAddOp.entryId;
            pendingAddOp.submitCallback(BKException.Code.OK);
        }
    }

Issue-2: ledger will be closed with a incorrect length

Since the task that triggers all successful callbacks in the pending queue may be run in IO thread, the task "triggers all successful callbacks in the pending queue" and closing ledger may concurrectly execute

steps worker-thread io-thread
1 start closing ledger peek pending addOp from the queue
2 check it is the first item: success
3 drain pending adds[code-3]
4 reduce ledger.length which was popped out from the queue[code-3]
5 call queue.pop and pop nothing
6 update ledger.LAC

The variables ledger.LAC and ledger.length do not match

[3] code-link: https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper/blob/master/bookkeeper-server/src/main/java/org/apache/bookkeeper/client/LedgerHandle.java#L2076-L2084

    synchronized List<PendingAddOp> drainPendingAddsAndAdjustLength() {
        PendingAddOp pendingAddOp;
        List<PendingAddOp> opsDrained = new ArrayList<PendingAddOp>(pendingAddOps.size());
        while ((pendingAddOp = pendingAddOps.poll()) != null) {
            addToLength(-pendingAddOp.entryLength);
            opsDrained.add(pendingAddOp);
        }
        return opsDrained;
    }

Great analysis @poorbarcode. IIRC, there might be some other pending PRs in this area where the review isn't complete. I'll check if they are related.

There are a few open Issues/PRs that haven't been processed and which could be related:

@poorbarcode would you be able to check if they are related and relevant?
