------------------------------------
Changing target fix version to 3.9 since this is not a blocker and we are past
code freeze
> Race condition in ShutdownableThread causes InterruptedException
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-15205
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-15205
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: 3.3.2, 3.4.1, 3.6.0, 3.5.1
> Reporter: Divij Vaidya
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.8.0
>
>
> In Shutdownable thread, during close, we call:
> initiateShutdown() -> which may interrupt the thread if
> isInterruptible is set to true during construction.
> After that, we wait for proper shutdown using
> awaitShutdown() which in-turn calls CountdownLatch#await(). On interruption,
> which could be caused by initiateShutdown() earlier, await() throws an
> InterruptedExeception. Hence, awaitShutdown() is going to exit by throwing an
> interrupted exception.
> The sequence to reproduce this will be as follows:
> App-thread: Name of application thread which spawns and closes Shutdownable
> thread
> Shut-thread: Name of the shutdownable thread.
> 1. App-thread calls ShutThread.initiateShutdown()
> 2. ShutThread.interrupt() is called. It informs the VM to interrupt but the
> actual interrupt will be async. initiateShutdown() from step 1 returns.
> 3. App-thread calls ShutThread.awaitShutdown()
> 4. App-thread waits on shutdownComplete.await() i.e. on CountdownLatch#await
> 5. VM decides to interrupt App-thread and there is a race condition now.
> Race condition:
> Condition 1: Shut-thread.doWork() gets interrupted exception, and decrements
> the CountdownLatch
> Condition 2: App-thread waiting on Shut-thread.shutdownComplete.await()
> throws an interruptedException as per the contract
> [https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/concurrent/CountDownLatch.html#await--]
> *Solution*
>
> In ShutDownableThread#awaitShutdown(), when calling await() we should catch
> InterruptedException and eat it up (do nothing), if the thread has
> isInterruptable set to true.
