Ganesha S updated SPARK-58505:
------------------------------
    Description: 
h3. Problem

When a task cannot acquire execution memory, Spark throws a 
SparkOutOfMemoryError
with error class UNABLE_TO_ACQUIRE_MEMORY:
{code:java}
Unable to acquire 8388608 bytes of memory, got 2097152.{code}
This message, which propagates into the TaskFailedReason and surfaces on the 
driver and in the Spark UI, reports only the requested and received byte 
counts. It does not indicate which operator was holding the memory, so it gives 
no direct signal about
the cause of the OOM.

`TaskMemoryManager.showMemoryUsage()` does compute a per-MemoryConsumer 
breakdown, but it writes that breakdown only to the executor logs. Recovering 
it after a failure means locating the correct executor's logs and correlating 
by task-attempt id, which is often impractical (logs rotated/aggregated, 
executor lost) and is not accessible to the driver or to programmatic/automated 
diagnosis.
h3. Proposal

Attach the same per-consumer attribution that showMemoryUsage() already logs to 
the `UNABLE_TO_ACQUIRE_MEMORY` error itself, so it travels with the task 
failure reason to the driver and the UI. The message becomes, for example:
{code:java}
Unable to acquire 8388608 bytes of memory, got 2097152.
  Memory used by task 4211 grouped by consumer:
    org.apache.spark.util.collection.unsafe.sort.UnsafeExternalSorter@1a2b: 
456.0 MiB
    org.apache.spark.unsafe.map.BytesToBytesMap@3c4d: 12.0 MiB
    (not attributed to a specific consumer): 3.0 MiB{code}
Consumers are listed largest-first (the most likely culprit surfaces first), 
followed by the bytes not attributable to any specific consumer.

h3. Problem

When a task cannot acquire execution memory, Spark throws a 
SparkOutOfMemoryError
with error class UNABLE_TO_ACQUIRE_MEMORY:

```  

Unable to acquire 8388608 bytes of memory, got 2097152.

```

 

This message, which propagates into the TaskFailedReason and surfaces on the
driver and in the Spark UI, reports only the requested and received byte 
counts. It
does not indicate which operator was holding the memory, so it gives no direct 
signal about
the cause of the OOM.

`TaskMemoryManager.showMemoryUsage()` does compute a per-MemoryConsumer 
breakdown, but it
writes that breakdown only to the executor logs. Recovering it after a failure 
means
locating the correct executor's logs and correlating by task-attempt id, which 
is often
impractical (logs rotated/aggregated, executor lost) and is not accessible to 
the driver
or to programmatic/automated diagnosis.

h3. Proposal

Attach the same per-consumer attribution that showMemoryUsage() already logs to 
the
`UNABLE_TO_ACQUIRE_MEMORY` error itself, so it travels with the task failure 
reason to the driver and the UI. The message becomes, for example:

 

```  

Unable to acquire 8388608 bytes of memory, got 2097152.
  Memory used by task 4211 grouped by consumer:

```

Consumers are listed largest-first (the most likely culprit surfaces first), 
followed by
the bytes not attributable to any specific consumer.
