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

             Summary: Flink seems to deadlock due to buffer starvation when 
iterating
                 Key: FLINK-8717
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8717
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Streaming
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
         Environment: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit

Core i7-6820HQ @ 2.7 GHz

16GB RAM

Flink 1.4

Scala client

Scala 2.11.7

We are encountering what looks like a deadlock of Flink in one of our jobs with 
an "iterate" in it. 

I've reduced the job use case to the example in this gist : 
[https://gist.github.com/rrevol/06ddfecd5f5ac7cbc67785b5d3a84dd4]

Nothe that :
 * varying the parallelism affects the rapidity of occurence of the deadlock, 
but it always occur
 * varying MAX_LOOP_NB does affect the deadlock : the higher it is, the faster 
we encounter the deadlock. If MAX_LOOP_NB == 1, no deadlock. It consequently 
leads to think that it happens when the number of iterations reaches some 
threshold.

>From the [^threadDump.txt], it looks like some starvation over buffer 
>allocation, but I may be mistaking since I don't know we'll Flink internals.
