[jira] [Commented] (ZOOKEEPER-1382) Zookeeper server holds onto dead/expired session ids in the watch data structures

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-1382?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13575670#comment-13575670 ] 

Michael Morello commented on ZOOKEEPER-1382:
--------------------------------------------

Since we monitor sessions and watches we note that we encounter this problem from time to time.
This is not a big issue but it causes a memory leak.
I'll try to see if I can work on it but it does seem hard to reproduce in a unit test.

> I've observed that zookeeper server holds onto expired session ids in the watcher data structures. The result is the wchp command reports session ids that cannot be found through cons/dump and those expired session ids sit there maybe until the server is restarted. Here are snippets from the client and the server logs that lead to this state, for one particular session id 0x134485fd7bcb26f -

> So, what seems to have happened is that the client was able to re-register the watches on the new server (226), after it got disconnected from 223, inspite of having an expired session id. 
> In NIOServerCnxn, I saw that after suspecting that a session is expired, a server removes the cnxn and its watches from its internal data structures. But before that it allows more requests to be processed even if the session is expired -
>             // Now that the session is ready we can start receiving packets
>             synchronized (this.factory) {
>                 sk.selector().wakeup();
>                 enableRecv();
>             }
>         } catch (Exception e) {
>             LOG.warn("Exception while establishing session, closing", e);
>             close();
>         }
> I wonder if the client somehow sneaked in the set watches, right after the server removed the connection through removeCnxn() API ?
