James Cheng created KAFKA-4858:
----------------------------------
Summary: Long topic names created using old kafka-topics.sh can
prevent newer brokers from joining any ISRs
Key: KAFKA-4858
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4858
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.10.2.0, 0.10.1.1
Reporter: James Cheng
I ran into a variant of KAFKA-3219 that resulted in a broker being unable to
join any ISRs the cluster.
Prior to 0.10.0.0, the maximum topic length was 255.
With 0.10.0.0 and beyond, the maximum topic length is 249.
The check on topic name length is done by kafka-topics.sh prior to topic
creation. Thus, it is possible to use a 0.9.0.1 kafka-topics.sh script to
create a 255 character topic on a 0.10.1.1 broker.
When this happens, you will get the following stack trace (the same one seen in
KAFKA-3219)
{code}
$ TOPIC=$(printf 'd%.0s' {1..255} ) ; bin/kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper 127.0.0.1
--create --topic $TOPIC --partitions 1 --replication-factor 2
Created topic
"ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd".

The topic does not get created on disk, but the broker thinks the topic is
ready. The broker seems functional, for other topics. I can produce/consume to
other topics.
{code}
$ ./bin/kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper 127.0.0.1 --describe
Topic:ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

Partition: 0 Leader: 2 Replicas: 2,1 Isr: 2,1
{code}
If you stop and restart the broker, it again gets that stack trace. This time,
the broker fails to join *any* ISRs in the cluster. Notice below that broker 2
is out of all ISRs
{code}
$ ./bin/kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper 127.0.0.1 --describe
Topic:ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

{code}
So, it appears that a long topic name that sneaks into the cluster can prevent
brokers from partipating in the cluster.
Furthermore, I'm not exactly sure how to delete the offending topic. A
kafka-topics.sh --delete won't delete the topic because it can't talk to all
replicas, because the replicas are not in the ISR. We ran into this at work
today and ended up having to manually delete the topic configuration from
zookeeper and then did a bounce of all affected brokers. Until we did that,
those brokers weren't able to join the cluster.
