lhotari opened a new pull request #12853:
URL: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/pull/12853


   ### Motivation
   
   - Prevent the intended cancellation of scheduled tasks in Pulsar code base.
   - 
[ScheduledExecutorService#scheduleAtFixedRate](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/util/concurrent/ScheduledExecutorService.html#scheduleAtFixedRate(java.lang.Runnable,long,long,java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit))
 (and 
[scheduleWithFixedDelay](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/util/concurrent/ScheduledExecutorService.html#scheduleWithFixedDelay(java.lang.Runnable,long,long,java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)))
 won't schedule the next execution if running the task throws an exception. 
This is explained [in the 
javadoc](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/util/concurrent/ScheduledExecutorService.html#scheduleAtFixedRate(java.lang.Runnable,long,long,java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)).
 This can lead to unintended cancellation of the scheduled task in failure 
scenarios.
   
   ### Additional context
   
   This is a cross-cutting change that is about the correct usage of 
ScheduleExecutorService API. The problem and solution is explained in this 
StackOverflow Answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/24902026.
   
   Bookkeeper client includes a solution called SafeRunnable (in 2 locations: 
in 
https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper/blob/master/bookkeeper-common/src/main/java/org/apache/bookkeeper/common/util/SafeRunnable.java
 and 
https://github.com/apache/bookkeeper/blob/master/bookkeeper-server/src/main/java/org/apache/bookkeeper/util/SafeRunnable.java).
 The SafeRunnable.safeRun method is used extensively in many parts of 
Bookkeeper code. Some parts of Pulsar code base uses SafeRunnable.safeRun to 
catch and log exceptions. 
   
   The concept of "SafeRunnable" is confusing. Instead of copying the same 
solution that Bookkeeper uses, it is intentional that there is no "safe 
runnable" and the method is called "Runnables.catchingAndLoggingThrowables" to 
make it explicit that the Runnable is wrapped with handling that catches and 
logs throwables. There is no "magic".
   
   ### Modifications
   
   - Add new static method 
`org.apache.pulsar.common.util.Runnables.catchingAndLoggingThrowables` to 
pulsar-common which wraps a `Runnable` with try-catch block to catch and log 
all Throwables.
   - Use this wrapper in most usages of ScheduledExecutorService 
scheduleAtFixedRate and scheduleWithFixedDelay methods.
