-------------------------------------
Summary: Job class loader may not be reused after batch job
recovery
Key: FLINK-13958
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-13958
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Runtime / Task
Affects Versions: 1.9.0
Reporter: David Moravek
[https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/e241be9a1a10810a1203786dff3b7386d265fbe8702815a77bad42eb@%3Cdev.flink.apache.org%3E|http://example.com]
1) We have a per-job flink cluster
2) We use BATCH execution mode + region failover strategy
Point 1) should imply single user code class loader per task manager (because
there is only single pipeline, that reuses class loader cached in
BlobLibraryCacheManager). We need this property, because we have UDFs that
access C libraries using JNI (I think this may be fairly common use-case when
dealing with legacy code). [JDK
internals|https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/java.base/share/classes/java/lang/ClassLoader.java#L2466]
make sure that single library can be only loaded by a single class loader per
JVM.
When region recovery is triggered, vertices that need recover are first reset
back to CREATED stated and then rescheduled. In case all tasks in a task
manager are reset, this results in [cached class loader being
released|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/flink-runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/runtime/execution/librarycache/BlobLibraryCacheManager.java#L338].
This unfortunately causes job failure, because we try to reload a native
library in a newly created class loader.
I believe the correct approach would be not to release cached class loader if
the job is recovering, even though there are no tasks currently registered with
TM.
