------------------------------------
Summary: Stream thread getting into deadlock state while trying to
get rocksdb lock in retryWithBackoff
Key: KAFKA-4848
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4848
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Components: streams
Affects Versions: 0.10.2.0
Reporter: Sachin Mittal
Attachments: thr-1
We see a deadlock state when streams thread to process a task takes longer than
MAX_POLL_INTERVAL_MS_CONFIG time. In this case this threads partitions are
assigned to some other thread including rocksdb lock. When it tries to process
the next task it cannot get rocks db lock and simply keeps waiting for that
lock forever.
in retryWithBackoff for AbstractTaskCreator we have a backoffTimeMs = 50L.
If it does not get lock the we simply increase the time by 10x and keep trying
inside the while true loop.
We need to have a upper bound for this backoffTimeM. If the time is greater
than MAX_POLL_INTERVAL_MS_CONFIG and it still hasn't got the lock means this
thread's partitions are moved somewhere else and it may not get the lock again.
