suryakantade opened a new pull request, #22621:
URL: https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/22621
Summary
Fixes the flaky testBalancePartitionLeaders test that was failing ~3% of CI
runs.
The root cause is a timing issue: the leader imbalance check interval (1s)
combined with a 10× timeout multiplier left only a 10s window for the periodic
electPreferred task to fire and rebalance partitions. Under CI
thread-scheduling jitter (KafkaEventQueue uses real wall-clock
cond.awaitNanos()), this was insufficient.
Changes
- Reduce leaderImbalanceCheckIntervalNs from 1s to 100ms — the periodic
task fires more frequently, reducing sensitivity to thread-scheduling delays.
- Increase the waitForCondition timeout multiplier from 10× to 100× (still
10s total) — gives ample headroom for slow CI environments.
- Add Javadoc explaining the test lifecycle and why the low check interval
is necessary.
