Kirk True commented on KAFKA-15475: ----------------------------------- [~lianetm] would you kindly point me at the code in the two {{RequestManager}} implementations that have solved this? > Timeout request might retry forever even if the user API times out in > PrototypeAsyncConsumer > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-15475 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-15475 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: clients, consumer > Reporter: Philip Nee > Assignee: Philip Nee > Priority: Minor > Labels: consumer-threading-refactor, kip-848-preview > Fix For: 3.8.0 > > > If the request timeout in the background thread, it will be completed with > TimeoutException, which is Retriable. In the TopicMetadataRequestManager and > possibly other managers, the request might continue to be retried forever. > > There are two ways to fix this > # Pass a timer to the manager to remove the inflight requests when it is > expired. > # Pass the future to the application layer and continue to retry. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
