########## File path: flink-runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/runtime/io/network/api/reader/AbstractRecordReader.java ########## @@ -63,6 +63,8 @@ protected AbstractRecordReader(InputGate inputGate, String[] tmpDirectories) { } protected boolean getNextRecord(T target) throws IOException, InterruptedException { + inputGate.requestPartitions(); Review comment: This is the only concentrated place work for all the batch cases. Otherwise we have to add this call for all the specific invokable instances derived from `BatchTask` class, even we also need to consider many other cases which bypassed the invokable class and use the wrapped `AbstractRecordReader` directly in unit tests, etc. I remembered in the early version, the `requestPartitions` was also placed inside `SingleInputGate#getNext` method. Because of the mailbox requirement, it was migrated into `#setup` afterwards. Considering the batch case unrelated to mailbox path, so i think it might be accepted to redo it still in the original place only work for batch cases. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
