Colvin Cowie created ZOOKEEPER-4296: ---------------------------------------
Summary: NullPointerException when ClientCnxnSocketNetty is closed without being opened Key: ZOOKEEPER-4296 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-4296 Project: ZooKeeper Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.6.2, 3.6.3, 3.5.3, 3.5.9 Reporter: Colvin Cowie I believe this bug was originally reported as ZOOKEEPER-2966 but that was closed as not reproducible in February 2019. I left a comment with these details on that issue in December. I can create a PR with a fix at some point this week. In ZooKeeper 3.6.2, in the context of the SolrJ client, we hit the NPE reported on ZOOKEEPER-2966 when a DNS error causes an exception after the SolrZkClient trys to connect to ZooKeeper, but then immediately calls close on the {{ClientCnxn}} [https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/blob/master/solr/solrj/src/java/org/apache/solr/common/cloud/SolrZkClient.java#L158-L204]. {noformat} java.lang.NullPointerException: null at org.apache.zookeeper.ClientCnxnSocketNetty.onClosing(ClientCnxnSocketNetty.java:247) ~[zookeeper-3.6.2.jar:3.6.2] at org.apache.zookeeper.ClientCnxn$SendThread.close(ClientCnxn.java:1445) ~[zookeeper-3.6.2.jar:3.6.2] at org.apache.zookeeper.ClientCnxn.disconnect(ClientCnxn.java:1488) ~[zookeeper-3.6.2.jar:3.6.2] at org.apache.zookeeper.ClientCnxn.close(ClientCnxn.java:1517) ~[zookeeper-3.6.2.jar:3.6.2] at org.apache.zookeeper.ZooKeeper.close(ZooKeeper.java:1614) ~[zookeeper-3.6.2.jar:3.6.2] at org.apache.solr.common.cloud.SolrZooKeeper.close(SolrZooKeeper.java:97) ~[solr-solrj-8.7.0.jar:8.7.0 2dc63e901c60cda27ef3b744bc554f1481b3b067 - atrisharma - 2020-10-29 19:39:18] at org.apache.solr.common.cloud.SolrZkClient.<init>(SolrZkClient.java:198) ~[solr-solrj-8.7.0.jar:8.7.0 2dc63e901c60cda27ef3b744bc554f1481b3b067 - atrisharma - 2020-10-29 19:39:18] at org.apache.solr.common.cloud.SolrZkClient.<init>(SolrZkClient.java:127) ~[solr-solrj-8.7.0.jar:8.7.0 2dc63e901c60cda27ef3b744bc554f1481b3b067 - atrisharma - 2020-10-29 19:39:18] at org.apache.solr.common.cloud.SolrZkClient.<init>(SolrZkClient.java:122) ~[solr-solrj-8.7.0.jar:8.7.0 2dc63e901c60cda27ef3b744bc554f1481b3b067 - atrisharma - 2020-10-29 19:39:18] at org.apache.solr.common.cloud.SolrZkClient.<init>(SolrZkClient.java:109) ~[solr-solrj-8.7.0.jar:8.7.0 2dc63e901c60cda27ef3b744bc554f1481b3b067 - atrisharma - 2020-10-29 19:39:18] {noformat} This happens if the {{ClientCnxnSocketNetty}}'s {{onClosing()}} is called before {{connect(...)}} (or if connect isn't called at all) because the {{firstConnect}} {{CountDownLatch}} is only initialized in {{connect(...)}}. [https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/blob/master/zookeeper-server/src/main/java/org/apache/zookeeper/ClientCnxnSocketNetty.java#L129] [https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/blob/master/zookeeper-server/src/main/java/org/apache/zookeeper/ClientCnxnSocketNetty.java#L247] A null check in {{onClosing()}} will fix it, but I don't know if there's any greater change required, e.g. some synchronization around connect and onClosing. The code in [3.5.3|https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/blame/1507f67a06175155003722297daeb60bc912af1d/zookeeper-server/src/main/java/org/apache/zookeeper/ClientCnxnSocketNetty.java#L206] looks very similar. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
