[jira] [Updated] (CASSSIDECAR-509) Live-migration download hangs indefinitely when source returns a non-200 for an invalid file path

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSSIDECAR-509?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Sampreeth Reddy B updated CASSSIDECAR-509:
------------------------------------------
    Description: 
*Problem*

When a live-migration client issues a {{GET /api/v1/cassandra/live-migration/\{dir-type}/\{dir-index}/files/...}} against the sidecar and the server-side path-validation code throws an unexpected exception, the HTTP response is never closed on the server side. The client's underlying Vert.x {{HttpRequest.send()}} keeps the connection open and waits for a body it will never receive, blocking the live-migration task's thread-pool slot until the client-side {{HttpClientConfig.timeoutMillis()}} fires (default: operation-wide timeout, often an hour).

The hang is caused by a missing {{.onFailure(...)}} handler on the {{executorPools.service().executeBlocking(...)}} chain in [{{LiveMigrationFileResolveHandler.handleInternal(...)}}|https://github.com/apache/cassandra-sidecar/blob/trunk/server/src/main/java/org/apache/cassandra/sidecar/handlers/livemigration/LiveMigrationFileResolveHandler.java].

*Steps to Reproduce*
 # Start a sidecar (release 0.4.0 or main) and point {{data_dirs}} at any valid Cassandra data directory.
 # Issue a {{GET}} for an obviously-invalid path through either the Vert.x client or {{{}curl{}}}:
{{curl -v http://<sidecar-host>:9043/api/v1/cassandra/live-migration/instance/1/files/this_path_does_not_exist.db}}The server correctly returns {{HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found}} .
 # Repeat the request via the Vert.x client:
{{sidecarClient.liveMigrationStreamFileAsync(instance, "this_path_does_not_exist.db", "/tmp/dest.db")
.get() this never completes}}

 # Observed: the {{CompletableFuture}} returned by {{liveMigrationStreamFileAsync}} never completes (success or failure). A thread dump shows the calling thread parked on {{{}CompletableFuture.get{}}}. 

{*}RCA{*}:

LiveMigrationFileResolveHandler does not have an {{.onFailure(...)}} branch chained to the {{executeBlocking(...)}} future. Vert.x's documented contract is that unhandled Future failures bubble up through {{UndeliverableException}} and are logged, but the {{RoutingContext}} is not auto-failed by the framework  the handler is responsible for calling {{rc.fail(cause)}} or ending the response.
h4. Proposed Fix

chain {{.onFailure(...)}} that calls {{rc.fail(500, cause)}} (or {{rc.response().setStatusCode(500).end(...)}} with a short JSON body, using the project's existing error-wrapping convention {{{}HttpExceptions.wrapHttpException(...){}}}):
