-----------------------------------------

             Summary: KubernetesShim.Stop() sends to the unbuffered stopChan 
instead of closing it, leaving one doScheduling loop running after stop
                 Key: YUNIKORN-3367
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YUNIKORN-3367
             Project: Apache YuniKorn
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: shim - kubernetes
            Reporter: Dale Richardson


Follow-up to YUNIKORN-3357 (shim goleak adoption, PR #1061); burns down the 
leakcheck exemption
k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/util/wait.BackoffUntilWithContext (pkg/shim).

{{KubernetesShim.doScheduling}} starts two {{wait.Until}} goroutines 
({{schedule}} and {{checkOutstandingApps}}) that share the unbuffered 
{{ss.stopChan}}. {{KubernetesShim.Stop()}} *sends a single value* to 
{{stopChan}} instead of closing it, so exactly one of the two loops wakes and 
returns; the other keeps running for the lifetime of the process, scheduling 
applications on a shim that has been told to stop. Which loop survives is a 
race (both park in the same Kubernetes backoff frame).

Proposed fix: {{Stop()}} should {{close(stopChan)}} — which stops both loops — 
rather than send to it, then delete the exemption in 
{{pkg/common/leakcheck/leakcheck.go}}.

Note for whoever triages: that exemption is the broadest in the file. Its top 
frame is a {{k8s.io/apimachinery}} implementation detail, so within pkg/shim it 
exempts every {{wait.Until}}/{{wait.Forever}}/{{wait.JitterUntil}} loop, 
including ones not yet written; and the frame name has already moved once 
({{BackoffUntil}} -> {{BackoffUntilWithContext}}), so a dependency bump can 
silently break the match and redden pkg/shim. Fixing the bug removes the need 
for it. Shares the {{Stop()}} path with the failed-Run() cleanup finding below 
and can be fixed together.
