Triones Deng commented on FLINK-9087:
-------------------------------------
[~yuzhih...@gmail.com] when i run the test. i found that in
{code:java}
public BufferConsumer broadcastEvent(AbstractEvent event) throws IOException {
try (BufferConsumer eventBufferConsumer =
EventSerializer.toBufferConsumer(event)) {
.......
// retain the buffer so that it can be recycled
by each channel of targetPartition
targetPartition.addBufferConsumer(eventBufferConsumer.copy(), targetChannel);
}
.......
return eventBufferConsumer;
}
}
{code}
which call targetPartition.addBufferConsumer() , here make use of the copy of
the eventBufferConsumer, so, all the BufferConsumer produced by copy share the
same buffer.and this will call AbstractReferenceCountedByteBuf.retain() , here
AbstractReferenceCountedByteBuf.java is netty class
all the targetPartition like AbstractCollectingResultPartitionWriter and
ResultPartition will call close method of BufferConsumer, at last the buffer in
eventBufferConsumer will be released. ResultPartition will call
notifyDataAvailable which is async to consume the data. so here we'd better to
let the return value alone, what do you think. or just change the method
signature to void ?
notice that in FLINK-7315, plan to use flink's buffers in netty, one sub task
FLINK-7518 which have a solution. i am a new here, any suggestions?
