> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Network
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0
> Reporter: zhijiang

> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.5.0

>
> In credit-based flow control mode, when the number of available buffers is less than required buffers (backlog + initialCredit), the {{RemoteInputChannel}} will request floating buffers from {{BufferProvider}}. If not get enough available floating buffers, the {{RemoteInputChannel}} registers itself as listener in {{BufferProvider}} and updates the tag {{isWaitingForFloatingBuffers}} as {{true}} to avoid registration repeatedly.
>
> When a floating buffer is recycled to {{BufferProvider}}, it will notify the listener of available buffer. But the listener may not need floating buffers currently if the available buffers is not less than required buffers, then the floating buffers will be returned to {{BufferProvider}} directly. Most importantly, the tag {{isWaitingForFloatingBuffers}} should also be updated as {{false, otherwise the RemoteInputChannel}} will not request floating buffers any more after the available buffers less than required buffers.
>
> There are two scenarios for causing the above issue:
> * The recycled exclusive buffers increase the total available buffers which is equal to or more than required buffers.
> * The decreased sender's backlog resulting the available buffers equal to required buffers.
