linyue li updated KAFKA-7672:
-----------------------------
    Description: 
Normally, when a task is mitigated to a new thread and no checkpoint file was 
found under its task folder, Kafka Stream needs to restore the local state for 
remote changelog topic completely and then resume running. However, in some 
scenarios, we found that Kafka Stream *NOT* restore this state even no 
checkpoint was found, but just clean the state folder and transition to running 
state directly, resulting the historic data loss. 

To be specific, I will give the detailed logs for Kafka Stream in our project 
to show this scenario:

*ThoubleShoot*

To investigate the cause for this issue, we analysis the source code in 
KafkaStream and found the key is the variable named "completedRestorers".

This is the definition of the variable:
{code:java}
private final Set<TopicPartition> completedRestorers = new HashSet<>();{code}
Each thread object has its own completedRestorers, which is created in the 
thread initialization, and not accessed crossly by other threads. The 
completedRestorers is used to record the partitions that has been restored 
completely in the thread.
{code:java}
if (restorer.hasCompleted(pos, endOffsets.get(partition))) {
  restorer.restoreDone();
  endOffsets.remove(partition);
  completedRestorers.add(partition);
}{code}
Once the partition is added to completedRestorers set, it will be returned by 
restore() and pass to the next caller updateRestored(), and then the 
transitionToRunning() will set this task to running state. 

But we found that completedRestorers *never* be cleared during the life cycle 
of this thread, even in the reset function:
{code:java}
//org/apache/kafka/streams/processor/internals/StoreChangelogReader.java

@Override
public void reset() {
 partitionInfo.clear();
 stateRestorers.clear();
 needsRestoring.clear();
 endOffsets.clear();
 needsInitializing.clear();
}
{code}
It will cause a problem: we assume that the task 1 once assigned to thread A, 
so its partition has been added to completeRestores. Then it mitigated to 
another thread (maybe in an different instance). After several rounds of 
rebalancing, it transitioned to thread A again and no checkpoint was here for 
some reason. The right way is to clean the state folder and restore it for 
beginning, but now, it found this task's partition is already in 
completedRestorers list, so it will consider this task as restored completely 
and resumed running directly.

To avoid it, we should clean the historical completedRestorers set every time 
after reassignment. So I add the clear operation in the reset() and validate it 
works.
{code:java}
//org/apache/kafka/streams/processor/internals/StoreChangelogReader.java

public void reset() {
  partitionInfo.clear();
  stateRestorers.clear();
  needsRestoring.clear();
  endOffsets.clear();
  needsInitializing.clear();
  //add by linyli
  completedRestorers.clear();
 }
{code}
 

*PS:*

In addition, I also investigate why no checkpoint was found for this state 
sometimes, and I found that the most common sense is when a task is mitigate 
from one thread to another thread in the *same* instance.

Why?

>From source code about task reassignment, we know that the task needs write to 
>its checkpoint file in EOS when it's closed by the previous thread, and the

To avoid the concurrency of read/write, I advise to add some wait time when 
read checkpoint to restore.

This is my fix: 
{code:java}
//org/apache/kafka/streams/processor/internals/AbstractStateManager.java
AbstractStateManager(final File baseDir,
 final boolean eosEnabled) {
 this.baseDir = baseDir;
 this.eosEnabled = eosEnabled;

 //add by linyli to fix checkpoint file latency in the same instance.
 try
 {
 File checkpointfile = new File(baseDir, CHECKPOINT_FILE_NAME);
 if(!checkpointfile.exists()) {
 Thread.sleep(1000);
 }
 }catch (InterruptedException e)
 {

 }

 this.checkpoint = new OffsetCheckpoint(new File(baseDir, 
CHECKPOINT_FILE_NAME));
}{code}
