[jira] [Commented] (FLINK-9761) Potential buffer leak in PartitionRequestClientHandler during job failures

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9761?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16617710#comment-16617710 ]

-------------------------------

Hi,[~NicoK]

why does the stagedMessagesHandler still should work when the stagesMessages is empty? Do you mean the potential memory leak comes from the visible of the stagesMessages in different thread ?

>    Affects Versions: 1.5.0

> {{PartitionRequestClientHandler#stagedMessages}} may be accessed from multiple threads:
> 1) Netty's IO thread
> 2) During cancellation, {{PartitionRequestClientHandler.BufferListenerTask#notifyBufferDestroyed}} is called
> If {{PartitionRequestClientHandler.BufferListenerTask#notifyBufferDestroyed}} thinks, {{stagesMessages}} is empty, however, it will not install the {{stagedMessagesHandler}} that consumes and releases buffers from received messages.
> Unless some unexpected combination of code calls prevents this from happening, this would leak the non-recycled buffers.
