             Summary: Controller should send UpdateMetadataRequest prior to LeaderAndIsrRequest during failover
                 Key: KAFKA-4443
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4443
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Dong Lin
            Assignee: Dong Lin


Currently in onControllerFailover(), controller will startup replicaStatemachine and partitionStateMachine before invoking sendUpdateMetadataRequest(controllerContext.liveOrShuttingDownBrokerIds.toSeq). However, if a broker right after controller election, the LeaderAndIsrRequest sent to follower partitions on this broker will all be ignored because broker doesn't know the leaders are alive. 

To fix this problem, in onControllerFailover(), controller should send UpdateMetadataRequest to brokers after initializeControllerContext() but before it starts replicaStatemachine and partitionStateMachine. The first MetadatUpdateRequest will include list of live broker. Although it will not include partition leader information, it is OK because we will always send MetadataUpdateRequest again when we send LeaderAndIsrRequest during replicaStateMachine.startup() and partitionStateMachine.startup().
