> We are using Flink 1.6.2 in our production environment, and kafka producer occasionally throws NullpointerException.
> We found in line 175 of flink/flink-connectors/flink-connector-kafka-0.11/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/streaming/connectors/kafka/FlinkKafkaProducer011.java, NEXT_TRANSACTIONAL_ID_HINT_DESCRIPTOR was created as a static variable.
> Then in line 837,
> {code:java}
> context.getOperatorStateStore().getUnionListState(NEXT_TRANSACTIONAL_ID_HINT_DESCRIPTOR);
> {code}
> was called, and that leads to line 734 of
> flink/flink-runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/runtime/state/DefaultOperatorStateBackend.java:
> {code:java}
> stateDescriptor.initializeSerializerUnlessSet(getExecutionConfig());
> {code}
> In function initializeSerializerUnlessSet(line 283 of flink/flink-core/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/api/common/state/StateDescriptor.java):
> {code:java}
> if (serializer == null) {
> checkState(typeInfo != null, "no serializer and no type info");
> // instantiate the serializer
> serializer = typeInfo.createSerializer(executionConfig);
> // we can drop the type info now, no longer needed
> typeInfo = null;
> }
> "serializer = typeInfo.createSerializer(executionConfig);" is the line which throws the exception.
> {code}
> We think that's because multiple subtasks of the same producer in a same TaskManager share a same NEXT_TRANSACTIONAL_ID_HINT_DESCRIPTOR.
