Surya Prasanna Yalla commented on HUDI-6596:
--------------------------------------------

{color:#FF0000}For now in this ticket the intention is to just focus on (2) 
`Rollback a specific instant:` . Depending on how this implementation goes, I 
think we could follow your approach for (1) `rollbackFailedWrites` when I 
create a ticket to address that. Sorry, I should rename the name of this JIRA 
ticket to clarify that.{color}

{color:#172b4d}> Since, the rollback API schedule & execution has an issue, we 
should fix the issue at the root. If we dont fix the root cause and start 
providing the patches by locking individual read APIs to timeline, another set 
of issues will come up. So, I strongly suggest you to fix the root cause. We 
also require this for supporting rollbacks on failed clustering commits within 
rollbackFailedWrites API.{color}

{color:#172b4d}Reducing the noise will be secondary, we can tackle/track that 
problem with another ticket.{color}

> h1. Issue
> The existing rollback API in 0.14 
> [https://github.com/apache/hudi/blob/master/hudi-client/hudi-client-common/src/main/java/org/apache/hudi/client/BaseHoodieTableServiceClient.java#L877]
>  executes a rollback plan, either taking in an existing rollback plan 
> provided by the caller for a previous rollback or attempt, or scheduling a 
> new rollback instant if none is provided. Currently it is not safe for two 
> concurrent jobs to call this API (when skipLocking=False and the callers 
> aren't already holding a lock), as this can lead to an issue where multiple 
> rollback requested plans are created or two jobs are executing the same 
> rollback instant at the same time.
> h1. Proposed change
> One way to resolve this issue is to refactor this rollback function such that 
> if skipLocking=false, the following steps are followed
>  # Acquire the table lock
>  # Reload the active timeline
>  # Look at the active timeline to see if there is a inflight rollback instant 
> from a previous rollback attempt, if it exists then assign this is as the 
> rollback plan to execute. Also, check if a pending rollback plan was passed 
> in by caller. Then it executes the following steps depending on whether the 
> caller passed a pending rollback instant plan.
>  ##  [a] If a pending inflight rollback plan was passed in by caller, then 
> check that there is a previous attempted rollback instant on timeline (and 
> that the instant times match) and continue to use this rollback plan. If that 
> isn't the case, then raise a rollback exception since this means another job 
> has concurrently already executed this plan. Note that in a valid HUDI 
> dataset there can be at most one rollback instant for a corresponding commit 
> instant, which is why if we no longer see a pending rollback in timeline in 
> this phase we can safely assume that it had already been executed to 
> completion.
>  ##  [b] If no pending inflight rollback plan was passed in by caller and no 
> pending rollback instant was found in timeline earlier, then schedule a new 
> rollback plan
>  # Now that a rollback plan and requested rollback instant time has been 
> assigned, check for an active heartbeat for the rollback instant time. If 
> there is one, then abort the rollback as that means there is a concurrent job 
> executing that rollback. If not, then start a heartbeat for that rollback 
> instant time.
>  # Release the table lock
>  # Execute the rollback plan and complete the rollback instant. Regardless of 
> whether this succeeds or fails with an exception, close the heartbeat. This 
> increases the chance that the next job that tries to call this rollback API 
> will follow through with the rollback and not abort due to an active previous 
> heartbeat
>  
>  * These steps will only be enforced for  skipLocking=false, since if  
> skipLocking=true then that means the caller may already be explicitly holding 
> a table lock. In this case, acquiring the lock again in step (1) will fail.
>  * Acquiring a lock and reloading timeline for (1-3) will guard against data 
> race conditions where another job calls this rollback API at same time and 
> schedules its own rollback plan and instant. This is since if no rollback has 
> been attempted before for this instant, then before step (1), there is a 
> window of time where another concurrent rollback job could have scheduled a 
> rollback plan, failed execution, and cleaned up heartbeat, all while the 
> current rollback job is running. As a result, even if the current job was 
> passed in an empty pending rollback plan, it still needs to check the active 
> timeline to ensure that no new rollback pending instant has been created. 
>  * Using a heartbeat will signal to other callers in other jobs that there is 
> another job already executing this rollback. Checking for expired heartbeat 
> and (re)-starting the heartbeat has to be done under a lock, so that multiple 
> jobs don't each start it at the same time and assume that they are the only 
> ones that are heartbeating. 
>  * The table lock is no longer needed after (5), since it can now be safely 
> assumed that no other job (calling this rollback API) will execute this 
> rollback instant.

> h2. Why might this change be useful?
> Although these scenarios can be resolved at the application/orchestration 
> level rather than HUDI, we are still working on this fix in our internal 
> deployment of HUDI since we want to avoid edge cases where 2+ jobs can call 
> this rollback API for the same instant at the same time.
