[I] [Bug] A failing page invalidation abandons the lookup store's file handle two levels up [paimon]
PDGGK opened a new issue, #9171:
URL: https://github.com/apache/paimon/issues/9171
### Search before asking
- [x] I searched in the [issues](https://github.com/apache/paimon/issues) and found nothing similar.
### Paimon version
master
### Compute Engine
Any — this is the local lookup store used by lookup joins and changelog production.
### Minimal reproduce step
Code inspection, plus a unit test that drives a real store with a failing `CacheManager`.
### What doesn't meet your expectations?
Closing a sorted lookup store walks three levels, and each one was a bare sequence of calls:
| level | |
|---|---|
| `SortLookupStoreReader.close():83` | `reader.close()` → `input.close()` |
| `SstFileReader.close():171` | `bloomFilter.close()` → `blockCache.close()` |
| `BlockCache.close():87` | `cacheManager.invalidPage(key)` for each cached page, in a loop |
A single failing page invalidation at the bottom therefore abandons the remaining pages, then the block cache, then **the file handle two levels up** — `input` is a `SeekableInputStream`.
**The descriptor is never reclaimed, and the failure is nearly silent.** Both callers deliberately swallow it:
```java
// LocalKvDb#closeAndDeleteSstFile
try { reader.close(); } catch (IOException e) {
LOG.warn("Failed to close reader for SST file: {}", file.getName(), e);
}
```
and the shutdown loop in `LocalKvDb#close` does the same. That is the right call — one bad reader should not stall shutdown — but it means an abandoned descriptor shows up only as a warning line, and nothing ever retries it. Readers are cached per SST file in `readerCache`, so this accumulates.
`BlockCache.close()` compounds it: the pages it fails to hand back stay resident in a `CacheManager` that is shared across readers, with nothing left holding a reference that could invalidate them later.
### Anything else?
This is the same shape as #9162 (`SortMergeReaderWithMinHeap.close()`), but a different code path — that one is the merge-tree compaction reader, this one is the lookup store.
`IOUtils.closeAll` does not fit any of the three: it declares `throws Exception`, and all three of these override or implement a `close() throws IOException`. `ExceptionUtils.firstOrSuppressed` is the right tool and its javadoc already gives this close-loop as its example.
