[jira] [Updated] (HBASE-16032) Possible memory leak in StoreScanner

["Yu Li (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16032?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Yu Li updated HBASE-16032:
--------------------------
    Attachment: HBASE-16032.patch

To solve the problem, we should catch exceptions after {{addChangedReaderObserver}} and remove the StoreScanner from {{changedReaderObservers}} if there's any.

Uploading a straight-forward patch following this design.

> We observed frequent fullGC of RS in our production environment, and after analyzing the heapdump, we found large memory occupancy by HStore#changedReaderObservers, the map is surprisingly containing 7500w objects...
> After some debugging, I located some possible memory leak in StoreScanner constructor:
> {code}
>   public StoreScanner(Store store, ScanInfo scanInfo, Scan scan, final NavigableSet<byte[]> columns,
>       long readPt)
>   throws IOException {
>     this(store, scan, scanInfo, columns, readPt, scan.getCacheBlocks());
>     if (columns != null && scan.isRaw()) {
>       throw new DoNotRetryIOException("Cannot specify any column for a raw scan");
>     }
>     matcher = new ScanQueryMatcher(scan, scanInfo, columns,
>         ScanType.USER_SCAN, Long.MAX_VALUE, HConstants.LATEST_TIMESTAMP,
>         oldestUnexpiredTS, now, store.getCoprocessorHost());
>     this.store.addChangedReaderObserver(this);
>     // Pass columns to try to filter out unnecessary StoreFiles.
>     List<KeyValueScanner> scanners = getScannersNoCompaction();
>     ...
>     seekScanners(scanners, matcher.getStartKey(), explicitColumnQuery
>         && lazySeekEnabledGlobally, parallelSeekEnabled);
>     ...
>     resetKVHeap(scanners, store.getComparator());
>   }
> {code}
> If there's any Exception thrown after {{this.store.addChangedReaderObserver(this)}}, the returned scanner might be null and there's no chance to remove the scanner from changedReaderObservers, like in HRegion#get
> {code}
>     RegionScanner scanner = null;
>     try {
>       scanner = getScanner(scan);
>       scanner.next(results);
>     } finally {
>       if (scanner != null)
>         scanner.close();
>     }
> {code}
